Some Cuban resort for a week. Free trip for me and my wife and family.

What the devil am I going to do at a resort for seven days???

My idea of a vacation is -20, hauling a toboggan a hundred miles and winter camping...

I am told in Cuba you generally don't leave the resort even?? I got three books and they have a gym, beach, and all you can eat...hopefully that keeps me from going nuts


Hold me Tman...l might die of boredom!!

They hate Kanucks, your probably not gonna make it back home. Can I have your traps and snowgo?

Eat lots of seafood, drink some rum, smoke a cigar or two, and if you have trouble falling asleep, turn on and listen to an old Castro speech or two.

Go bass fishing at Treasure Lake for a world record bass.

I have some friends who want cigars. I told them I'd bring back $500 worth and we can argue about who gets what once I am back.
.

As for the Castro speech, my boss just got back from Portugal , and there was an election going on. The party expected to win was the communist party, and their election signs had a hammer and sickle on it ...that's a hard pass on the commie speech good buddy, insomnia or not!

I don't drink, but I do plan on embarrassing myself at the buffet ..

I understand you will see a lot of neat old cars. Take pictures.

If you need excitement rent a car and pay no attention to a pedestrian police officer who blows his whistle at you as you go by. That's what I did in Cuba.

Turns out they have radios! Also, turns out some are in cars that receive radio transmissions!!!

More research needed....my telescoping pack rod is already packed. Bass in Cuba?? This info changes things...

Take in one of them “shows” they have there. LOL

You can absolutely leave the resort. Cuba is about as safe as it gets. They hate Americans and French Canadians.
Where r u staying?

Policeman: pull over!

Me, driving by: actually it's a cardigan, but thanks for noticing!

Paradisus Rio de oro.

Hatred of French Canadians? I am liking these Cubans more and more...

Show? Aware me. By pm if necessary. Lol

Cuba's had bass since the 1920's. BIG ONES !!!

Just goggle cuba trophy bass fishing.

Quite a few lakes with excellent bass fishing.

Great. Now I'll have to try and explain to my wife why I am trying to fit a pack raft into our luggage

I'll keep my eyes open. I love going different places, seeing cultures, etc... but the thought of just sitting and rotting in the sun doesn't do it for me. Not super into cars but I can appreciate a classic.

There's a good market for used rafts in Cuba, that can make it to Florida, so you won't have to deflate and pack it for the trip home.

See, it's tips like this that keep me coming back here.

Plus, brownie points with the wife when I tell her the raft is for "humanitarian purposes".

You are most welcome to leave the resort, where you will become an instant target for communist criminals or communists who might decide they want to give you a 20 year vacation in a Cuban prison to make a political point. I know that is bad for business with Canuck currency a reason Cuba plays with Canadians, but all the same, the idea of bringing home a 12 foot tape work from eating pork or getting a tropical disease from bug bites sounds exactly like what you would get on a free vacation.

Smile pretty when you get naked out of the shower, as the comrades always have surveillance in every room.

Where is your next free vacation spot, Tehran or Pyongyang?

Yep, like I said, you gonna die.
