Jackie and I got back a few days ago from a week-long trip in Cuba, which kicked a lot of ass. On the upside, very relaxing and enjoyable and we met a lot of cool people we’ll be keeping in touch with - many of whom were, ironically, from the GTA. Nothing like flying three hours to meet people who live a 20 minute drive from your home, I always say.
On the downside, I was in such a rush to book it and get prepped to go that we booked it without any thought as to what we’d like to do there aside from resort life. Cuba turned out to be much bigger than I’d expected, putting our resort an hour and a half from the nearest major city, and a whopping five hours from Havana, which was the one place Jackie’s well-travelled brother told us we had to check out. So sadly, none of that happened. But we were able to drown our sorrows in sunshine, gorgeous beaches, and free drinks.

Coming up over the next (hopefully) few days: my journal of our time in Cuba, along with some pics. Stay tuned!
