Dominican republic or Cuba?

[flummox]

Been to Punta Cana and Varadero but not Punta Cana.

My vote - Cuba all the way.

Varadero is the Daytona beach of Cuba, party place but not a lot of culture or atmosphere. Diving/reefs are better elsewhere in cuba. Scooters rock in Cuba. So do the old Cars.

Food isn't as good (good luck on beef or meat in general) but coffee, ice cream, cigars and rum are far better in cuba.
People are (much) nicer and (much) less predatory/aggressive. But that might be due to the guards with the machine guns at every beach entrance...

Less "stereotypical" american tourists in Cuba.

i dunno where this "hard on" for ****** Cuban food comes from.

last few times i've been its always been fresh beef, pork and chicken laid out and cooked anyway you want it + the pasta bar and the rest of the buffet.

Never did i ever go into the diner and not wanted to have something they were offering.

I assume Cuba doesn't have much parties or clubs due to the fact of communism or am I wrong?

LOL you make it sound like it's they're choice. "Please America, embargo us!"

Good point, Kellen. I've been to Cancun also and it's definitely a place to go party. Pretty damn fun.

Frank's REDHOT a must. I always bring the big bottle for me and my friends.

We've learned our lesson....

Ketchup, mustard, salt and pepper are coming with us. The stuff they got there is too bland.
