Careful, the government of the Land of the Free restricts travel to Cuba,
and several other countries.

There are legitimate ways for Americans to obtain a license to travel
legally directly to Cuba. Loogy, however, would have to go illegally
through Mexico, because his gross stupidity will not qualify him for a
license.
Here, stupid, read this. If you want to go more than one day, you're
screwed:
Although the government of Cuba permits U.S. citizens to visit, the
U.S. itself restricts its citizens from travelling there, except with
a license issued by the Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets
Control [1]. The specific restriction is against spending money in
Cuba, however U.S. authorities consider any visit of more than one day
to be prima facie proof that one has spent money there. Furthermore,
OFAC also holds that U.S. citizens also may not receive goods or
services for free from any Cuban national, eliminating any attempts to
circumvent the regulation based on that premise.
Gross stupidity would be someone who wanted to go through that trouble
to visit Cuba for ONE DAY!!!
