Obama Relaxes Cuba Travel Restrictions

Americans with relatives in Cuba will now be able to travel more freely to visit those relative without violating U.S. law, the Obama Administration announced today. Several news sources (Associated Press, NY Times, H Post) are covering the development.

The Associated Press sums up the changes:

President Barack Obama is allowing Americans to make unlimited trips and money transfers to family in Cuba and easing other restrictions Monday to usher in a new era of openness toward the island nation ruled by communists for 50 years.

The questions now: How long until the average tourists gets to see what Havana's night life is like now…?
