Well, new to most Americans anyways, and only maybe. Castro has resigned as the president of Cuba, which leaves a small amount of hope that the US will lift their ridiculous travel prohibition on the Carribean island. Of course, there’s a chance that the US won’t lift the restrictions and we’ll be relegated to religious and educational missions or illegal travel from the Keys by boat or from other Latin American countries. But a guy can dream…
Update (3:26pm 19 Feb 2008): Apparently there’s no chance that the travel ban is going anywhere anytime soon. According to John Negropronte, the Deputy Secretary of State, “I can’t imagine that happening any time soon.” Sounds like he needs a better imagination.
