However, what we’ve heard from recent U.S. visitors is that they’ve been welcomed by cheerful, cooperative Cubans.

That positive feature was one of CBS News’ ten reasons to visit the island. Others include shopping bargains, uncrowded tourist facilities, great music, fantastic food, historic landmarks, moderately-priced hotels, clean beaches, economic flights and other advantages.

San Francisco CA: Homeless Spreads From City To Airport PDF Print E-mail


If travels take you to busy SFO, you’ll encounter many people there who have no other place to go. They encamp both outside and within the terminal, adding to crowding, confusion and lack of cleanliness.

San Francisco is one of the most expensive cities in the US, with high rentals ever rising due to inflation and greedy real estate owners. Many homeless are jobless, mentally ill, addicted and otherwise forced into the streets, and now at the airport.
