This is a boat from Cuba, that landed on the shore of the Florida Keys.
13 people on board travelled 85 miles in this mess to escape Cuba.
Apparently the deal goes – if a Cuban can make it across and set foot on US soil, they get to stay and the government gives them $10,000 to start a new life.
Imagine being stuck for days in this thing, not knowing you will make it, and even if you do, you what… start a new life from scratch, in another language, with what little belongings that fit on your back?
Feel like whatever was bothering you is less dramatic now? Good.
If not, try my line here.
