La Botella in Cuba
La Botella- Botella is a Spanish word for bottle. But in Cuba it means a lift. The public Transport system in cuba is very poor. Everyday one can see beautiful young girls standing in the road side asking for ‘a botella’. Men (young and not so young!!) are more than pleased to offer a botella.
People have to wait for an hour or more to get the bus. China has Supplied about 700 Yongton buses to Cuba. 500 more buses would arrive by December 2007. The cost of a bus ticket is about 40 cubano centavos –equivalent to 80 Indian paise.Taxi service is very costly. Special Cubano share taxis costs about 10 cubano pesos .
