Out to Giron ... Bay of Pigs and more Cuban history

The next morning I left at twilight and watched the sun rise and made Giron before noon and the heat of the day. 



Long shadows at sunrise



Lots of history at the site of the US sponsored invasion at the Bay of Pigs. There was an interesting museum commemorating the imperialist yankie  invasion of Cuba and the heroic battle by the Cuban people to protect their freedom and independence.



The beautiful beach where the invaders landed

 The next day on to Australia to make Havana by Sunday.
