Cuba, What do you think?

[Tedgeman]

"It was quite surprising last year for Cuba to allow international calls and access from cell phones. But the plans and phones are so pricey I am not sure how many bought into this."

I was surprised, on my most recent trip to Cuba, just how many Cubans are using cell phones, there were lots.
Thanks again, regarding the US problem with Com Net etc website development, and the Cuban Restrictions, however, this only strengthens the idea for some Ca websites using their Canadian registrar. So, again Canadians could easily, start their Cuba travel sites and enjoy the ride while it lasts.

I,m considering my next trip to Cuba, and looking at Nov 09 or Jan 2010. These dates usually offer, the best deals on all inclusive travel to the Varadero. I like 2 weeks because with all the food and drinks included, it takes that long to acclimatize. I have not set any preference, as to which month I pick, since the last minute vacations have proven to be well worth it, over booking in advance. The only thing a tourist needs to book is his vacation time.
If anyone would like to connect with me in Cuba and/or either of these months are intriguing, let me know which, I,d be happy to personally share some of the tips and a few drinks under the Cubana sky.
If you have been thinking about going to Cuba, now is the time to consider this option.
Let me know

All-inclusive in the Varadero for a 4 star, probably 1400 to 1600 from Calgary, but Toronto is quite a bit less like 1000 to 1200 for 2 weeks, this is guessing that last minute deals will continue as they have in the past
I like January, in part because, the weather is usually more predictable, and nice and warm. Its a wonderful time to be in Cuba, away from Canada,s winter and snow. Makes a fellow forget about the cold and breaks up the months, until spring gets closer. The excitement and fun, I get in my veins, is like antifreeze, I can,t feel the cold for weeks back in Canada, but when the chill hits, it hits hard. lol

I have not been to Santa Clara, but plan on it one day.

"To get a feel of the real Cuba, however, sign up for the many excursions. The
most popular is the tour of nearby historic Santa Clara."

I would say, "To get a feel of the real Cuba, however, have dinner with a Cuban family in their house, and really break out of the tourist stuff, by hanging out with the locals in the little towns". but thats me
Love this stuff...

I would have loved to have been in Havana for this, wow.
I notice how quickly the weather is changing here in Calgary, sure looking forward to going in Mid-November, however, there will be no concert like the one mentioned, dang!
