A Visit to Cuba

​Cuba.  We might all think of something different when we think of Cuba.  If you had asked me to say something about what I thought Cuba might be before I went there I would have said, “not modern, stifled, downtrodden, communist and closed,” and other similar adjectives to that.  In truth, however, Cuba is many things, some of which may be described by the adjectives I mentioned but other descriptions would be very different.  It is also modern, wealthy, and filled with people who are warm-spirted and enterprising.  I saw high-rise 5-star+ hotels being built and stayed in a beautiful 5-star hotel located in Old Havana.  There were many automobiles of all varieties and the homes ranged from poor to upscale.  Yes, poverty was all around me, as is seen in many countries, but the people seemed happy and were industrious and most were very welcoming and gracious. I was often asked by people on the streets to take their photograph and a couple of times I was invited into their home to view it and talk.
