  7. Cross Cuba off the blacklist

    Washington has for three decades kept Cuba on a list of countries that sponsor terrorism, even though it has long since changed the behavior that earned it that distinction.

That's hardly a sensible standard.

    HAVANA &mdash; "It's been 51 years since the event you Americans call the Bay of Pigs, but now Playa Gir&oacute;n is a popular beach destination for foreigners," the guide tells me. It is hard to imagine that the words "Bay of Pigs" could do anything but fill Americans with dread. As if reading my mind, she says, "We don't call it Bah&iacute;a de Cochinos."
