[Leica] Cuba?

[Henning Wulff]

I WILL have photos, :-), but might take Olympus m43 instead of Leica. Not sure yet.

Some of Tom's pictures are at: https://www.flickr.com/photos/rapidwinder/tags/havana/

We are arriving in Cuba Jan 29 and leaving Feb. 12. If any LUGgers are there at that time, we could make a serious effort to get together.
