Amen to that! I've been once and I'm planning to go back at the end of this year. It was great experiencing the Cuban culture and it would be a shame to see it so westernized.

I hope you don't mean that you would be happy to see Cuba remain exactly as it is today...?

Where have you been in Cuba, if I may ask? I went on a tour last year which included quite a large part of the island, and we (mainly) stayed with Cuban families. It was heartbreaking to see the daily struggle that so many people endure just to survive.

No, not at all. I would like to see Cuba improve their economic situation, but I would like to see them do that while maintaining their sovereignty. I would like to see the US stay our of their affairs.

I was in Holguin.
