My family will go to 古巴 on Dec. 25 (or 26) for one week vacation. 有谁愿意结伴去的？My daughter is 9 and my son is 3 and half. I hope they can meet some new friends by this trip. If you had been there, welcome the suggestion. Especially if you know better package price (currently I find 1300 Canada $ for adult and 1000 for child).

Wish all the friends has a wonderful holiday!!!

<HR style="COLOR: #d1d1e1" SIZE=1> <!-- / icon and title --><!-- message -->古巴 is a wonderful country for vacation. 60% of my colleages had been there for at leat one time. Myschedule includes 5 stops in 8 days and many exciting activities. The only disvantage is the price a little high. However, on more choice if you want to enjoy the vacation with you kids because it is alway high in Xmas ans spring break.

Let's keep in touch, as I may go there again... BTW, $1,300 sounds a bit too much....

If you want to relax, stay at a same resort such as Cayo Coco. You have a 3 year old child, so to go and visit Havana is not a good idea (it's just too warm and tiring for the children; they won't like it). Trip Cayo Coco has more restaurants and offers better food than any other resorts in Cuba, and it is ideal for families. Varadero has the finest beach in the world; try to stand in the water (just metres off the beach) and watch fish swimming around you! If you go to Varadero, try to reserve and go to a "restaurant a la carte" as often as possible, for a buffet type of restaurent often provides the same kind of food every day which you will soon get tired of... Santa Maria is also a nice place, which is just 15 minutes away from Old Havana, but it's mainly for singles, as opposed to families. For a 7-night vacation, I myself would assume two bottles of sun blocking cream, just to avoid getting "burned". In addition to swimming suits, try to take with you at least three sets of fine, casual clothes so that you do not have to wear the same clothes when you go to the restaurents the next time or day.  (To check best deals, you may go to www.selloffvactions.com or worldofvacations.com.)

Enjoy!
