Matanzas City Cuba
Chris and I visited Matanzas City Cuba in 2004 and came across a very interesting building. At first we thought it was a church but wasn't 100% sure. Next day we went for another scooter ride into Matanzas City and found the building we thought was a church filled with school children.The children noticed our camera and were yelling and hanging out the windows.We took some amazing photos of the children dressed in uniforms. The kids asked to see the digital pictures on our camera and were so excited to see themselves. At that moment, I wished we could go inside the school to meet the children and hand them the gifts we brought.
August 2007 we decided to go back to Cuba and brought my 14 year old son. We spoke about the school in Matanzas City and asked him if he would like to visit. Forgetting the children are out on a summer break, no children are to be had. We were still excited to photograph the building as it was because it had so much character.
As we began to photograph the windows of the building a old man pointed his finger to come in. I asked if he was sure..... I didn't want to get him into trouble. He brought up his hand telling me with his fingers we have 5 minutes to browse! I was so excited to see the inside of this large building. I wished we could of found out what the building was used for before it became a school.If someone knows, please let us know.
Below are just a handful of the pictures I took of the inside of the school.
