If I go there, yes I will have a driver.  He claims he can drive there in 7 hours.
 
 However he said it would only take 2 hours to drive to Baracoa and it took 4 hours.  Mind you the road was terrible most of the way and you couldn't go over 10 mph for miles on end.

Yes Bulldog    :s:   I do have a driver to ferry me around.  My friends say I drive like a tortoise!!! It's good having him drive particularly around Holguin and other towns we visit.
 
 F&T have met him too and he is a right treasure. He's a really quiet guy who is willing to do anything for you.  Fred wanted some Peso cigars and he went out and bought him some just like that.  He drives too fast for my liking but if he gets stopped he just argues with the police and they let us go.  There's always another poor non Spanish speaking tourist coming along they can fine!!!
