The pavement is too hot to walk on comfortably and the Aqua Bar is about to open, and Manuel does not have enough paint brushes or paint to teach a watercolour class of kids.
His letter took a month and a half to get here, and I had to go to the Post Office to get it.
I met him last year when we discovered that we have mutual friends at the Ottawa School of Art. This year, he gave me a shopping list, and he's waiting another year for me to deliver a few pencils, some trivial art supplies....stuff that I'm afraid Havana might keep.
I've got to find a way to get to Holguin next year, even if I am booking Costa Rica next March.
