Bueno!
Lots going on here. You made it, good. Did the customs agents take the vegetal bounty? Did he really need to restock or was it all just a ploy? What the hell is that coke? Isn't "Sin Calorias" translated to "Zero Calories"? No Coke Lite? Inquiring minds! "Extra strength" Coke?! Was coca added back in there? :lol:

.....just for the record, before Mike arrived I was down to some LA Aurora DNA, a few straggling show cigars, a couple of William's 2nd, and some $0.04 colmado stick. No lie.


I'll get a pic up with some gratitude mañana.....

The afternoon was casual, with some hardcore domino playing, and then a baseball game in the evening. Yes, DC, some of these campo cigars are coming home to you!

LOL sweet, even I can't beat 5 cents a cigar. When it comes to bargain stogies you folks win hands down. :) Also the license plate ashtray is pretty gosh darn ingenious!

Si, señor! Last year, William gave Mike an Águilas hat. This year Mike generously returned the favor. William was ecstatic.

Visited La Flor Dominicana today. A very attractive facility and grounds. We escorted by Litto Gomez' son, Antonio, and saw a couple things that were unique (?) to that factory. We were given a brand new cigar at the beginning, La Volcada, which was pretty darn good and an Airbender tubo a little later. Several posts coming...
