Great video with a special interest to me. My grand father was from Quivican (one of 13 children); he left for Florida around 1905. I am interested in knowing if there are any Beiro’s in Quivican.

Can any one suggest which time of the year is best to travel to Cuba ?

Well it can get REALLY hot there so I guess it depends on how much you mind the heat! I went in September and there were a couple days that were so hot I couldn't take it, but I'm not really a fan of hot weather haha
