Fantastic pictures, Tikiwahini! Are there outtake shots we can see? And what's this I hear about Feet? :P

The shot of the picturesquely crumbling building facades shows up a prime problem Cuba has, and will continue to have for the foreseeable future: although they have 100% literacy, decent medical care, and a Kick Ass Baseball Team, they're lacking hard currency reserves, they lack big ticket exports to get any, and their infrastructure is crumbling around them. Those Mid-Century beauties that we love may have to be torn down if they rot from the inside while Cuba is unable to make any substantive repairs.
