It was awesome.
I've always wanted to go, so when the opportunity arose, I jumped at the chance.
Its capital city, La Habana, (Havana) is one of the most amazing, most interesting cities I've ever visited. I'll have to go back, I had no idea.
I was surprised by how lush the land was. And hilly. And green. Did I mention the trees? Everywhere?
It wasn't at all what I expected but somehow still was everything I'd expected.
I snorkeled for the first time since I was a teenager and I'm very glad I did. It was an 85 year old British man that convinced me I must; he said it was some of the best snorkeling in the world.
I met some very cool people and re-reminded myself that no matter where you go, we're all just the same when you get right down to it.
The music was fantastic. We don't dance enough around here.
I feel incredibly lucky to have experienced this country at this stage, I don't know if things will change, but I'm glad I was able to be there now regardless.
Much much more to say, many many more pictures to post but I'm still catching up with things.
Traveling will do that. . . but it's oh so very worth it.
Life is good.

sounds like you had a blast! Did you bring back any cigars?
I'm so happy you had a great trip! ;)
I've always been curious about Cuba. I'll definitely add it to my list of places to visit. ;)
Spy business? They always send you to the best places!
Slinger, nooooo, smoking is bad! Well, ok, maybe one or two, but I'll give them away :)
Yvonne, when you go, you must spend time in Havana!
McGone, they certainly do. It's one of the perks of the job. ;)
Sounds great, can't wait for the pics.
So, does this mean you are banned from The States now? Tee!Hee!
I didn't ask! ; )
But, they didn't stamp my passport itself so I should be ok.
