CUBA: What are your vacation plans..... [View all]

There's a whole new world opening up just 90 miles south of Florida and I have to think that Cuba is going to be an interesting place for a few years until the Corporations take it over and turn it into another blah cookie cutter Caribbean destination. So I am curious to see what DUers thoughts about the opening of Cuba.
