Day 12 - Wednesday

More shopping today. Sheesh. Finally got some work in during the day, and spent some time at home. Cuban restaurant for dinner. Really good bread and salad. Having dessert at the Mexican place after, had our first anti-American encounter. Three girls in the table behind us were looking around the ground in the dark. One of them had lost something from one of her piercings. Tabi had a flashlight on her phone and went over to help. She asked if they were looking for something and one girl said, "isn't it obvious?" in a sarcastic tone. At that point, I would have stopped trying to help ... but Tabi smiled and offered her flashlight and assistance anyway. To this the girl responded by waving us off and sneering, "you're Americans, you can leave now." We refrained from ripping the rest of her piercings out :)
