    At the age of 15, young 
    Cuban girls are treated royally, with parties, photos, and much recognition.
    This is known as the "quinces."
    

    
    Night-time Trinidad. Like 
    in much of Cuba, the evening is a good time to sit outside and talk.

    section, where horses are tied to the front of houses. 
    
  
  

    
    There is a lot to be said 
    in support of this lifestyle. I know many people who would gladly trade residences.
    

    
    Many people in Trinidad 
    keep birds as pets. You hear a lot of birdsong when you walk around the town.
