Just spent a fantastic week exploring Cienfuegos and Trinidad – wow! Our blog – www.yachtbandit.blogspot.com – has been updated with all the pix/stories. What an amazing place Cuba is. We are still full of crayfish after successful snorkelling expeditions on the southern archipelago. A wonderful place.
