I'll be in Mexico. Guess I'll have to miss this one.
-30 in Calgary and +30 in the Mayan Riviera. I love you guys, but not that much. Adios!

Too bad you can't go before. A little advice regarding diving in Cuba though, don't go unless you're certified and relatively experienced. There's no PADI dive shops and the shops I went to were sketchy to say the least and equipment quality is poor. Pretty much every dive something went wrong, I could see bad things happening to those not experienced with emergency situations. Might be better in some places but I doubt it.

Thanks for the advice. I do not plan on doing any diving as im not certified yet but I purchased a decent snorkel set and plan on doing as much of that as possible!
