Phrases to learn for Cuba

Phrases to learn for Cuba

Speaking to a fellow worker, I had got him to teach me a few phrases to say when going down south.

I will be visiting Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic shortly, and am learning the following for the trip (Note: the spelling of the translated version is my spelling and it may be incorrect):

English: How Much is This
Translated: "Quanto Questa es to"
Pronounced: Kwan-to Kes-ta es to

English: Let's Go
Translated: "Vamanos"
Pronounced: Va-ma-nos

And the very important one :)

English: Give me 2 beers please
Translated: "Deme dos Cerveza por favor"
Pronounced: Deh-meh dos Cer-ve-za pour fa-vor

As I think of more to ask my fellow worker, I will put more posts up with the phrases to learn and say when you Travel to Cuba.

Cuba Cars

In my trip to Cuba, I learnt that Cuba keeps many old classic American cars in Cuba and drives them around. When I took my excursion to Havana, Cuba , I was taken on a tour in an old American Car. Here is the Car I was taken around in: Christopher P. Baker has made an excellent book featuring pictures of many of these Classic American Cars in Cuba. It is titled Cuba Classics: A Celebration of Vintage American Automobiles . This book has received many great reviews: "Yes, we've all seen great photos of classic cars in Cuba--but this book will make you swoon.
