We slept in a bit after such a late night, and had a large breakfast at Casa Armando. We made our way out into Havana in search of sights, and also in search of Internet. We would come to find that Internet in Cuba is a fairly large problem. Usually only the large hotels have it, and it costs around $8CUC (Cuban Convertible Pesos - pegged to the US Dollar) per hour, and is fairly slow and a bit unreliable.
We spent the day wandering around Havana and attending to some business on the Internet, and had some dinner at a restaurant just off one of the main squares in Havana Veijo (Old Town), and I had an amazing rum after dinner.
Getting a feel for Havana is very difficult - it feels like it should be VERY dangerous, but at the same time it doesn't feel dangerous at all. We're obviously being fairly careful with regards to showing anything flashy around, and even though we have heard that Cuba is quite safe, we're not really taking any chances.
