All that he said about cruise ships is true. They do take away from the local economies and pollute. If Cuba wishes to limit their presence in Cuban water more power.

Spending a week with a gaggle of tourist engaged in nonstop gluttony and gambling is certainly not my idea of a good time. When I travel I want to see the country, how the people live, get a feel for the flora, fauna and history. To stay in an insulated bourgeoisie cocoon is so lame, might as well go to Hilton Head.
