After Isis left, I scrubbed up and got ready to head out to the discos. In Havana, all of the action is at night, and all of the discos open no earlier than 11pm. Jonesie had furnished me with a list of discos to check out, and tonight I decided to head to Salon Rojo, which was listed as a good weekend spot.

When I arrived at Salon Rojo I felt like I was entering a bastardized version of Help in Rio. It was pretty much a smaller version of help with more tables and chairs and less dance floor. I paid my 5 CUC cover and parked myself in a major walkway and started rejecting girls left and right. On any given night at any given disco the available women outnumber the men on average around 4 to 1. I scanned the club for a bit, and after maybe half an hour found a girl I was interested in. As she walked over to me I introduced myself and we got to talking.

Tainet was originally from Guantanamo but had been in Havana for a year, which pretty much means that she's been a hooker for a year. We agreed to 80 CUC for 2 pops and took a cab back to my place for 10 CUC. She was an incredible ball licker, but she was in a rush to leave after my first pop. I've never heard a girl ask for leche as much as she did during my second pop. I finally asked her if she needed leche to make ice cream and she didn't find me very funny... boo. Overall she was probably my worst experience in Cuba, but yeah, even this 'bad' experience was better than my best experiences in a place like Costa Rica, for sure.

Another weird error message...

Ice cream??? Ok that's just funny!

So far all of the women pictured have clearly been hookers as one would expect to find in a havana disco. Hopefully you'll hook up with a semi-pro before trips' end.

She wanted to get out of there to see if she could pull out another tourist at the club.
