[jetpack_subscription_form] In sort of a quick discussion, I decided to join some friends on a week long trip over Christmas. They had planned to go to Cuba and I thought…why not. I went 10 years ago in 2009 and said I would want to return one day when I went with friends and had some […]

Cuba Part 5 – The last stop in Cuba…(Varadero) – June 2009
