After a nine hour flight we touched down and the stewardess announced: "Welcome to Jose Marti international airport. The temperature is 28 degrees Celsius." Wow, this was going to be my warmest Christmas eve. My first impression of Cuba, however, was not so positive. First of all, o one seems to work in this country. While waiting at the passport checkpoint we counted as many as 14 uniformed men and women walking around the hall and/or chatting with each other. It took as two hours to get through the checks. And that's considered to be normal our guide explained later. As is the xray hand luggage check on arrival.
Anyway, we were glad to see him the minute we got our baggage and off we drove through the Havana night to our hotel.
