I think it is best to go from Cancun Mexico
charter flights to the island and tell the customs agent to not stamp your passport with the standard
cuban stamp. tons of fun. lots of communist propaganda there, if you speak spanish this is a great boon
for your adventures. else you might get stuck at the state run hotels.. getting off the beaten path
(state-controlled) makes things much more interesting. take buses from Havana all over to the major cities where there are historical sites (if you are into that) locals had love and hate stories regarding the Castro
regime... its not all what its cracked up to be... if you know people in the right places, then you will have a better life than others..
this was all before 9/11
who knows how it is now with Raul in charge....
