Last day in Cozumel 2016

This is it. 
My last day in Cozumel 2016.  But it isn't the last day of this year's winter adventure for me.  Before, I go home, I'm going to Cuba for 10 days! 

So, I'm sad to leave Cozumel and my wonderful friends here.  But I am excited about this next part of the adventure.  This January, I turned 50 years old.  It felt like a pretty big deal to me.  So I decided to make this year's winter adventure extra special.

I've never visited Cuba.  And I want to see it before it changes, because the USA and Cuba are  beginning to reconcile.  This may change Cuba for the better, or not.  Regardless, I wanted to see it the way it is.  Now.

So tomorrow, I'll be on a bit of a journey.  I'll take a taxi to the ferry terminal here in Cozumel, and cross to Playa Del Carmen.  Then, I'll take a bus to the airport in Cancun.  From which I'll fly to Havana, where I'll stay for four nights and three days.  Discovering a new place for me.  And using my Spanish, which has really improved in the last 5 weeks.  Yay!

After Havana, I'll travel to Varadero,  where I'll meet my sister and stay for seven days.

I don't know what the Internet access will be like in Cuba.  I'll try to continue to blog.  But, if you don't hear from me, don't worry.  I will not take stupid chances.  I like adventure.  But I also like to feel and be safe.  If you don't hear from me after February 25, which is when I fly from, hmmmmm.......
