Varadero

Varadero also has a communist government. All of Cuba does. This means they use pesos and speak Spanish. The climate is also the same, but the average temperature here is 84 degrees farhenhiet. Varadero is a resort town in the province of Mantanzas. The population is 20,000 people.
In Varadero you can go scuba diving, deep-sea fishing, yachting, and do all other watet sports. It has crystal clear waters and fine white send. You can also find 40 species of coral, a wide range of fish, lobsters, shrimp, crab, and dolphins. There are also 70 kinds of mullosks. They are also on the same time as Indiana is because it is still in Cuba.
While in Varadero Britt is going to Delfinario. It is a dolphin show with the option to actually swim with the dolphins. She will also visit the Bellamar Caves. It is a visit to the oldest tourist attraction in Cuba, open to visitors since the 1860s. The caves are extensive and impressive. There are quite a few steps down into the cave and it is slightly damp and rough underfoot, and also very warm. Another place she will be is the Seafari Cayo Blanco. It's an excursion by Catamaran, snorkeling in a coral barrier reef, entertainment, music, lunch and open bar with Cuban cocktails in Cayo Blanco. There is the option to either swim with the dolphins or visit the dolphin show at Delfinario and enjoy a sunset party. M-Su (7 hours duration). $81 for the sunset party and dolphin show trip. $91 for the chance to swim with dolphins instead.
After she gets on the bus to come back to Havana, she will catch a flight back to Cancun. This flight costs $412 and is on the 26th. After she arrives in Cancun, she will board a flight and head to Sun Valley, Idaho. This flight is $644. It is an 11 hour and 58 minutes flight. Sun Valley is right outside of Ketchum, which is where our travels end.
