I plan on booking a trip to Cuba(instead of Cancun) as soon as I can string together a flight and accommodations. I've enjoyed my stays at other Caribbean vacation spots and thought this might be a historically cool place to relax and sight-see for a few days. While I'd be a little afraid of hobbying there at this time, I have to admit it sounds interesting. I'm sure there's an industry there already, similar to Cancun, but the 50 years of tension between the countries and the communist government there make me think it's a bad idea. Your thoughts?Every woman is for sale in Cuba. $20.00 US a pop.

...it's been a while since i went to havana on a service trip [no, not that kind of service...]
Bring a lot of cash. Because your American credit cards and debit cards won't work. Best if you have a foreign bank.
Don't bring US dollars. There's extra tax for currency exchange. Better to bring the Canadian dollar or better yet the Euro.
