I don't have much to 'report' this week, but I don't think I'll be online again till Sunday/Monday- so thought I'd write a quick update so you all know I'm still alive.

Today on the bus we finally met some more tourists (something that is actually quite hard here as everyone has their guard up due to the touts), who were also suppose to be in mexico and as a result their Posted by rhinoc in Trav vs. The World | May 11, 2009

We arrived into Santa Clara happy to get away from Habana and hopefully find a gentler more interesting way of life. Sadly with the bus getting in at 6:30pm and the morning bus leaving at 11:20 it left us little Posted by rhinoc in Trav vs. The World | May 11, 2009

One of the main downsides to visiting Cuba has to be, without a doubt, the food...or lack of it. I had been told by everyone I met who had been there not to expect much at all and they were Posted by annora in the long way home.... | Feb 7, 2008

Trinidad is a world heritage site. 50 years of communist rule has ensured the city's neglectful preservation. No other city in Cuba is so well preserved or charming.

Visiting Cuba sometimes made us feel like we were in the twilight zone. Where else is it illegal for common people to eat beef or lobster, in order to feed tourists (especially in a communist country)? Posted by edcastaño in Francis & Edward, Taste of the World | Sep 4, 2008

Arrival in Havana
