I know guys that go all the time - illegally. Cuban immigration won't stamp your PP if you're American. Get a flight from MEX or CUN. Bring plenty of $$$ as you can't use CCs or TCs. Most of these guys rent apts and stay out of the hotels. I've been told that the law states that one can go to Cuba, but it's illegal to spend more than $100. If you want to do it legally, go on a prepaid - all inclusive tour. It's OK, as long as you don't pull out your wallet. I vaguely remember hearing scuttlebutt about a crackdown though. Better check that out before you go. wj
