Fidel Castro is working more than his lips. According to an article in a Spanish newspaper, the Cuban leader who hasn’t been seen in public since last summer, is working his legs as well and with Nobel Prize winning writer Gabriel Garcia Marquez.

“I tell you, it seemed like kilometers,” the Nobel Prize winning Colombian writer said, describing a stroll the two went for on Monday.

“Fidel is a force of nature,” said Garcia Marquez, adding that he found Castro in good humor and interested in talking about global warming and Latin American politics.

Now if only Castro would talk and walk in public.
