Represent the dialog for retrieving similar scenarios Speaker1: Hello dear Speaker2! Just to let you know that we are flying over to Havana tomorrow and be staying in Cuba for 4 weeks. As far as I know the Internet is rather nonexistent there, so don't worry when receiving no news from us.
Speaker2: Good to hear from you, Speaker1. We thought you were already there. Yes, I know how difficult it is to go online in Cuba. But they do have so called hotspots.
Speaker1: I understand these are just public spaces where you can get connection but you have to buy a credit that seems to be quite expensive. We will do that but not more than once a week or so.
Speaker2: Don't bother then texting us. We'll catch up on the news later.
Speaker2: When are you back in the online world?
Speaker1: On 4 January. Cancun, Mexico.
Speaker2: You have stamina for that travelling, old man!
Speaker1: We've been taking it easy this time staying in places for a week at least. All has been working according to plan so far.
Speaker2: Thanks for sending us an email with the update of your whereabouts. Fantastic pictures!
Speaker2: Helen says it looks as if you both have lost some weight.
Speaker1: Not really. Not yet. But surely we will in Cuba.
Speaker2: ?
Speaker1: Food shortages, food rationing, black market - you name it. We've heard the folks there are queuing for bread. They have restaurants though, but we hear the offer is rather modest.
Speaker2: Sounds a bit of a challenge but it can't be that bad.
Speaker1: Hope not. And losing a few pounds won't be bad either. And there is always Havana Club!
Speaker2: Try the 7 year old one. To my taste it can compete with mid range cognacs.
Speaker1: We'll try them all. Mary is also looking forward to trying out a Cohiba. If we can afford it!
Speaker2: At Miller's they run 20 a piece.
Speaker1: Out of question!! Better ways to ruin one's health.
Speaker2: Come on! You are on holidays! Enjoy it and stop counting money. Cuba isn't that expensive after all.
Speaker1: Wrong! Tourists are forced to use special currency and pay special prices. We'll see how expensive or cheap it really turns out to be.
Speaker2: Anyway I hope you'll have a great time in Cuba. We wish you all the best for this lag of your journey.
Speaker1: Thank you. We'll get in touch as soon as practicable.
Speaker2: Happy trails!
Speaker1: All the best to you and Helen.
