From landing in Havana, hoofing it all the way down to Trinidad and
back in a rented Mexican built Nissan (with special insurance on
the tyres in case they get stolen by raft builders), the author
vividly describes his hellish time in the Caribbean's biggest
island nation during Fidel Castro's 'Special Period'. Compared to
Bill Bryson, this is a travel tale of three weeks in the Sunshine
Socialist State where extortion, confrontation, dolphins,
kidnapping, appalling food and a chance meeting with 'The Leader'
became a story worth telling. And all the author really wanted at
the time was a nice quiet, boring beach holiday. ""Surely this
holiday is just off to a bad start. It couldn't get worse, could
it? No really, could it?"" 2nd EDITION, REVISED FEBRUARY 2008 -
