Thank you, Karen and Josh for the What Pegman Saw challenge. Thank you for taking us to a different part of the world every time! This week we’re there in Cardenas, Cuba.

Changes Left Unchanged
For most people, Stone Castle was just a stone castle as the name suggested.
But for me, it was more reverend than Jerusalem itself.
It had been almost nine decades since I’ve been staying there. I’ve seen the seas change, the trees change, the houses growing and the animals going.
I’ve seen myself change with time too. My youthful face is now scared and lined and my back is now hunched and my silver beard sweeps the ground.
But one thing has remained unchanged, untouched and unshaken. The hole on the wall from where the pirates once passed and from where the great reverend dragons, my ancestors came to light up this castle.
I like how you make us wonder why the castle is so important and then drop the big bomb at the end: dragons!
