Angelo-American Hospital (for 4 days) (most beautiful hosp. I was ever in). Was kicked off the "Tevives" (United Fruit Line boat between New Orleans and Havana) because my incision was inflamed from being seasick. Spent other 3 days walking all over Havana. Don said he'd "have had more fun with my kid sister".
