Didn't visit any of those gringo buildings, but only the downtown streets and many stores and cafes. Fantastico! Pura Cuba!
Are you sure they were Cuban?
The vast majority of Cubans moved out of the downtown area, and even what was called "Little Havana", about two or three decades ago and most will now be found in suburbs of Kendall, Coral Gables and Westchester with SUV's and BMW's in the driveway and with kids or grandkids who can barely understand Spanish.
The other day, one of the networks was doing a promotion of the upcoming Super Bowl in Miami and was talking about "Little Havana" and "Cubans" while showing a guy with a baseball cap with a Venezuelan flag on it.
Pick out the Cuban guy on the cover of this album.
