Wonderful photos! A visit to Cuba is on my bucket list. I would hope that the travel restrictions to Cuba from the USA will be lifted in my lifetime. It amazes me that we (the USA) openly interact with every other nominally communist country on the planet with the exception of Cuba. Face it, we lost this one. Time to move on.

If you're interested in going legally (and you can) there are a number of tour groups and packages available. The only downside is that they are relatively expensive. That said you can go legally as an American to Cuba.

Hi, Damaso. Yes, I suppose you can legally go, with an approved "cultural, educational, business-specific" license (or, of course, through a third country) but, as you say, they are expensive. Not quite the same as "show your passport at the gate" travel.
Regardless, a fine series of photos from you and the others. I have a copy of the 1989 Pantheon release of Walker Evans - Havana 1933, and I would imagine certain views would be strikingly similar to what Evans would have captured.

I think there's something to be said for going before things "change." When we do normalize relations there will be a shift. That having been said the country is already changing dramatically so if you want to get your Evanseque shots the clock is ticking!
