One thing to note is that our relations toward Cuba appear to be warming
with Obama in the White House. It's entirely conceivable that Guantanamo Bay
could become a tourist destination in the next four years.

I *have* been to Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, and it's gorgeous. If the
detention camp and the base were closed and the lease were terminated, I can
see the Cuban government trying to turn it into a world-class resort. I can
also see corruption causing that effort to flop.
