PARTY.
>> Anchor: THE DOLPHINS PUT
THEIR WINNING STREAK ON THE LINE
IN BALTIMORE.
>> Anchor: WE START WITH THE
DEATH OF FIDEL CASTRO. THE
ASHES OF CUBA'S FORMER LEADER
HAS BEEN INTERREED IN A TOMB.
THIS IS VIDEO WHEN THE ASHES
ARRIVED TODAY.
>> Anchor: PHOTOS SHOW THE
ASHES PLACED INSIDE A LARGE
GRANITE BOULDER. CASTRO'S
BROTHER RAUL PERFORMED THE
INTERREMENT. THE CEREMONY
CAPPED NINE DAYS OF PUBLI
MOURNING IN CUBA.
>> Anchor: LET'S GO LIVE TO
CUBA.
>> Reporter: THE NATIONAL DAY
OF MOURNING CAME TO AN END FIVE
HOURS AGO AT HIGH NOON. FIDEL
CASTRO'S FINAL CEREMONY, A SMALL
EVENT, IT'S SAID FIDEL CASTRO
PLANNED OUT THE EVENT, DOWN TO
THE LAST DETAIL, PROJECTING AN
IMAGE THAT HE WANTED THE WORLD
TO SEE.
[FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
>> IT'S AN EMOTIONAL MOMENT
SAYING GOOD-BYE. WE'RE STANDING
FIRM BY HIS LEGACY.
>> Reporter: CASTRO'S REMAINS
TRAVELING THROUGH THE STREETS O
SANTIAGO. ONE HALF OF A
CONTROVERSIAL ERA CLOSING. AND
THE OTHER HALF VOWING THE
REVOLUTIONARY'S IDEAS WILL
CONTINUE.
[FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
>> NOW WE WON THE WAR. THAT IS
THE VICTORIOUS FIDEL, WHO ASKED
US TO FOLLOW HISEXAMPLE. HE
SHOWED US THAT, YES, WE COULD!
YES, WE CAN! AND YES, WE WILL!
[FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
.
>> Reporter: CASTRO'S DIEING
WISH, NO PARKS OR STREETS TO BE
MAIMED AFTER HIM, A LESS
DRAMATIC SCRIPT FOR A MAN WHO
LOVED POLITICAL THEATER. IT'S
LIKELY CASTRO'S FINAL ATTEMPT TO
DEFINE HIS LEGACY, BEFORE HIS
ENEMIES CAN.

>> Reporter: AND THE FOCUS WAS
ON THE FUNERAL PROCESSION
EARLIER TODAY. AND NOW THE
FOCUS IS ON THE CEMETERY WHERE
FIDEL CASTRO'S ASHES WERE
INTERREED. BY REPORTER IS
JOINING ME NOW. BECAUSE YOU HAD
A CHANCE TO GO TO THE CEMETERY
EARLIER TODAY.
>> Reporter: WE DID, SANTA
IFIGENIA CEMETERY OPENED TO THE
PUBLIC A FEW HOURS AGO. BEFORE
WE TAKE YOU TO AN UNUSUAL TOMB,
I WANT TO SHOW YOU PHOTOGRAPHS
COURTESY OF "THE ASSOCIATED
PRESS," WHICH WAS THE ONLY MEDIA
ALLOWED TO BE THERE, WHEN RAUL
CASTRO, PRESIDENT, THEY CALL HIM
HERE, NOW PRESIDENT FOR TEN
YEARS, ACTUALLY WAS THE ONE TO
DELIVER HIS BOTHER'S ASHES AND
ENTOMB THEM INTO THE STRUCTURE
THAT WILL BE FIDEL CASTRO'S
GRAVE. THEN, HE TOOK A STEP
BACK, AND GAVE ONE FINAL SALUTE,
TO THE MAN, THE FOUNDER. WHEN
YOU GO TO THIS CEMETERY, YOU SEE
THIS TOMB FROM THE GATES. IT'S
VERY UNUSUAL BOULDER SHAPE.
AGAIN TO THE END, SYMBOLISM FROM
FIDEL CASTRO.
>> THEY WANTED TO BE THE FIRST
TO VISIT.
[FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
>> HE WAS A GOOD LEADER, SHE
SAYS. THEY WAITED FOR HOURS
OUTSIDE THE GATES OF THE
CEMETERY FOR IT TO OPEN. SOME
SAD, AND SOM DEFIANT.
[FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
>> HE SAYS IT'S THE IMPERIALIST
THINK THEY CAN COME IN AND TAKE
OVER CUBA, WE'RE PREPARED TO
DEFEND IT, LIKE HE DID.
>>> FIDEL CASTRO'S ASHES ARE
INTERREED IN WHAT APPEARS TO BE
A SIMPLE BOULD MARKED FIDEL.
IN SANTIAGO'S SANTA IFIGENIA
CEMETERY, ALREADY A HISTORIC
SITE BECAUSE OF THE NATIONAL
HEROS AND CITIZENS BURIED THERE.
CASTRO ORCHESTRATED HIS FINAL
RESTING PLACE. THE TALL
MONUMENT IS THE FINAL RESTING
PLACE O CUBA'S INDEPENDENCE
FROM SPAIN. IN DEATH, THE ICON
SEEMS TO HAVE A HOLD ON AND BE A
DRAW FOR THO INTRIGUED WITH
VIEW OF SOCIALISM.
>> HE HAD THE IDEA. AND HE
TRIED TO MAKE THE BEST OUT OF
IT.
>> Reporter: AND AS YOU MIGHT
EXPECT, ALREADY, JUST OPE FOR A
FEW HOURS, THIS CEMETERY AND
TOMB SITE ARE TOURIST DRAW.
WE SAW BIG TOURIST BUSES PULLING
UP.
>> Reporter: WE HEARD THE
CHANTS AND THAT PEOPLE WERE
SIGNING A SOLEMN OATH AND WE
HEARD FROM DIGTORIES AND LEADERS
FROM LATIN AMERICAS. THEY ALL
SAID THEY'RE GOING TO CONTINUE
THE PLEDGE OF REVOLUTION. BUT
WE'RE NOT SURE WHAT THAT MEANS.
>> Reporter: I'M QUITE SURE
THEY'RE NOT SURE WHAT SHAPE
THEIR REVOLUTION WILL TAKE AS
THE GENERATIONS GO ON. AND THAT
IS A STORY THAT YOU AND I WILL
BE COVERING FOR A LONG TIME.
>> Reporter: THE QUESTION IS
CHANGE FOR CUBA IF AND WHEN IT
