RE: 'Ti's Holiday Season in Amsterdam...almost.

in Wednesday Walklast year

The streets there look very nice, oh the little trees, how cute they are. You know, bicycles here in Cuba are very common since there's only few people who can afford a car, but we don't have like a specific place to park them, it's something much needed I think. I enjoyed your walk 😊

I never really knew that bicycles are so popular in Cuba. This is news to me, and thank you for sharing. I'm sure it's easier for people to go around with bicycles.

Yes, it's a lot easier, and more now with all the problems we have with public transport.

So these bikes are then not left on the streets, right, because there is no rack? They are kept inside the home?

Yes, unless you go to an institution like the university, a hospital or a work center where they have a parking lot and there's usually a man there, like a keeper and it normally only costs like 5 Cuban pesos to leave your bike or motorbike there. But let's say you are downtown doing your shoppings, there's no place to leave your bike 🤷🏻‍♀️.
