sights…Urban Transport

2013-Apr-23 Holguín, Cuba: The primary mode of transportation for most Cubans is walking, riding a bike, horse, or
donkey, or catching a ride on a bicitaxi (bicycle taxi), or a horse/donkey/ox driven cart. Brave souls may take the bus, which is an old army truck covered with a tarp that they squeeze into like sardines. There are quite a few classic cars (manufactured prior to 1950) on the streets but most are taxicabs (taken by European and Caribbean tourists) as most Cubans cannot afford to own a car.
