Thanks nicki for posting 'live' and hope you are still having a great time.
 
 My experience at the PCV was exactly the same ie: quieter.
 
 I think the World Cup has affected European travellers - it is low season at the moment in Cuba, due to the Canadians staying at home for the summer months.

Hi nicki,
 
 thanks for posting live.  Hope you're having a wonderful time and enjoying your anniversary.
 
 We had a Happy anniversary thread going for you.  
 
   Happy Annivesary
 
 Enjoy the rest of your vacation.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

hiya guys
 
 belagio,  you wouldnt believe the amount of spanish here and theres quite a few canadians here too which last yeare there wasnt, i was trying to tell one about the crazy canadian cocktai but our barmen dont know how to make it .

I haven't got a clue!!!  Perhaps I should have said every BARMAN knows how to make one.
