Lots of Germans still go there too, Edelweiss. And this year there were tourists from Austria, the Netherlands, Italy, Argentina and Venezuela. We've been going to the same resort for 8 years now, and meet the same tourists every year, so it's like a family reunion when everyone's there. Most people speak enough Spanish so it's our common language.

It might sound sort of sad, but between our Cuban friends and fellow tourists, I actually have a much richer better social life in Cuba than here at home. We're out every evening, either playing dominoes in friends' houses or playing cards/chatting with other tourists.
