Cuba

Traveling again! This time I am going to visit the country of rum, cigars and pirates, arrrr!
I am doing the journey with my old classmate Philipp. He also accompanied me during the Netherlands trip.
We will start tomorrow afternoon with the train from Vienna to Frankfurt. Flying from Frankfurt instead of Vienna takes an additional day, but saves a lot of money :) We are going to arrive in Holguin on friday, where we will have the first "impressions" - whatever that means - of the country. Our round trip will then lead us via Santiago de Cuba to Varadero, Havana, Trinidad, Cienfuegos, Santa Clara and back to a beach-hotel close to Holguin. The whole fun takes 2 weeks - one for the round trip, and one for the beach, the cigars, the rum, the resulting drunkenness and (hopefully) to sober up!
As usual, I will try to shower you with photos as soon as possible!
And please forgive me my poor english, I have a big lack of practice and I'm damn tired. Botanic exam tomorrow morning :)
