While shooting the video Hotel Nacional + Plaza de la Revolucion (Vedado, Cuba) – In Another Minute (339), I also took a lot of photos in the Havana neighborhood Vedado. Below you can see a few of those pictures.

| The most refreshing daiquiri I’ve ever had… at the Hotel Nacional after walking the entire Malecón from Habana Vieja in the Caribbean heat. |

| In theory, I pretty much never ever take pictures of friends or family in front of sights. I like to keep my portraits separate from my landscapes and building pictures. But, Scott sipping a melting daiquiri in front of the Habana Libre in Cuba? I couldn’t resist. |

Hotel Habana Libre was built as the Habana Hilton. During the revolution it even briefly housed Fidel Castro’s headquarters.
