We went to New Bedford when we first visited Newport many years ago. It was lovely. 😀

@@thetravelingtoosmtl Thank you. I was born there although I no longer live there. It was a lovely city when I was young in the 1950’s and 60’s. It still has some lovely areas now. Great food. Especially the fresh seafood.

You’re welcome. Cuba is a beautiful country. We have been there three times. Enjoy! 🇨🇺

Thanks!

Grad you enjoyed the video! Lots of love Ray & Flavi xo

Flavia is 🇮🇹😀

When we went last year, it was exceptionally humid. However, we were never too far from the beach or a cool beverage.😀

The roads are pretty good for North American standards but there are many roundabouts. The locals don’t drive as fast as a lot of the other islands and are quite courteous with road etiquette. Enjoy!

The official speed limit on the island is 37mph, but you can go as slow as you want, as long as you're not obstructing traffic. Also if you're traveling to the beaches on the west side, some drivers might try to overtake you. Just let them go. Other than that, Curacao is quite laid back when it comes to driving. On par with the culture.

No we did not.

Yes all water activities were free 😀

No we are not American. We booked the hotel with the airline.

Its only people from the USA that have a hassle to go to Cuba. I think all other American Countries can go really easy. example I am Canadian and have been to Cuba over 15 times and its as easy as booking and going.

I actually saw U2 on their Rattle n Hum tour in '87 in Tempe Az where they filmed part of the movie there. Best Concert I ever attended.

Glad you liked the video. We have been to Mexico and many of the Caribbean islands. Cuba, in particular Varadero, has the best beaches hands down. No waves, no seaweed. If you are not a beach person you maybe disappointed with the food and level of luxury compared to Mexico. There is always something to eat but it can be repetitive. Please keep in mind that Cuba has very limited imports. I would definitely give it a try if you have never been there.

@@thetravelingtoosmtl thank you!

Have fun!

We loved our trip to California! Such a beautiful state. Thanks!

Yes he was very nice and informative! 😀

Yes they are! One of the many reasons we like Cuba! 🇨🇺😀

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for the kind words!

Thank you for the comment. Actually the resort is open to all Cubans. We met a couple who enjoyed the weekend there.

All the islands are 3rd world or border line, i have been to most, none have good food, but cuba makes up for it with the beaches

Thanks for the questions. 1) Food: for Cuban standards pretty good. Huge breakfast buffet. Beach Bar Grill was under renovation. Great lunch buffet = main restaurant. A la carte dinner portions a bit small and without air conditioning 2) not many insects but bring bug spray. 3) we tipped in USD. Cubans are very appreciative no matter the amount. Don’t forget to watch the nightly shows.

@@thetravelingtoosmtl Another question: Did you have to get a Tourist Card/Visa to enter Cuba? Thanks in advance.

Yes we completed and provided the D'VIAJEROS form to Cuban immigration officers.

Have you been at a better hotel in Varadero?

Sorry to hear that. Our experience was great. Third trip to Cuba and this was our favourite. It’s all about the beach.

Those types of people are who support the dictatorship, the money spent by those is used to buy patrol cars rather than ambulances, artifacts of repression rather than medication. It is simply be part of the crime against the Cuban people. 1054 politics prissioners languish in subhuman conditions just for peaceably ask be freedom.
