Cuba November 2018

[ElJavi76]

My plan is 10th to 17th. Get the party weekend in Havana first. Followed by a trip to PdR to visit with family and yes Robaina or Piedra. I'll be aiming to be at opening dinner on Tuesday night. Lots of sightseeing and LCdH shopping during the week. Have a great time during the week and close the show with the gala dinner on Friday. Fly back to New Jersey on Saturday. 

Looking forward to meeting as many FoH brothers and sisters as possible. Hope to see you all there.

Is this an open invitation for anyone to join?  Sounds like fun ... and I could use an excuse to get back to Cuba.  What’s the Partagas dinner?

I’m gonna bid my schedule to make Cuba happen. Fancy a stopover in Hawaii? I have a new female friend from Romania who makes a mean Mai Tai...

Also where’s the change.org petition to get @JohnS to come?

I did seriously consider traveling to Hawaii first. Haven't locked down anything yet, just the dates of flying into and out of the States and Cuba. I still need to be in Florida before heading to Cuba.

When I raised the question of John coming to Cuba with me, in Eleni's presence of course, I got this startled look from John with a quick shake of his head.

Yes it's open! How bout that!  There'll be more info about the structure of FOH hang time coming soon. Partagas Dinner is a dinner, in likely, the smokiest room you'll ever sit in while you see an awesome cuban show, drink wine and rum, smoke cigars, eat some great food (and a 50/50 dice roll on whether you get sick). It's a hoot that should be experienced at least once!

You know, there are laws against that.

I'll be there, 10-18 Nov, sharing the same house with Rob and Stuart Fox that we had last November.

It's about 100 yards from Santy's with a comfortable covered smoking area for probably 30 people.

Foh-ers welcome for a smoke, possibly a rum or two..

 

[madandana]

Andy...We will be taking you up on that!

Count me in on LA Nov 5th -

Here's a list I found. I've been to 6, 7, 8 & 11 before. @SenorPerfecto we should scout these locations for "research"

I’d love to join.  Getting married in Chicago 9/29 and likely heading to the Maldives for a few weeks shortly after.  Need to see what the budget looks like for additional travel and cigar purchases soon after

Bribe the navigator to make a stopover in Havana.

I'd have to bribe him to take us through the Panama Canal first, seeing as we're in the Pacific...

Canadian Navy? I'm in the US Navy and I'll be leaving on deployment in July and will also unfortunately miss out. One of these days!

Yes indeed! You'll have to go next year. I deploy in January for an 8 monter...i know the feeling!

[Zedman05]

I shall be there at that time again as well. We will see where my travels take me, and what your posted plans will be later this year, El Prez. I may just join in the festivities this time around, instead of just seeing everyone all around town seperately and glad-handing...

[Artin]

I will try to make it to the Nov 5 LA hang out

So I will need help making arrangements with where to stay. This will be my first time in Cuba. And have never done this before.  Also what about visa's and everything.

Sometimes good things take time my friend (to convince my wife...you know what I mean).

[planetary]

To whomever is coordinating the LA meet-up, or at least putting names on a sheet, I should be able to make it down there for the day, too!  Probably driving down from SF.

Your airline typically provides the visa and the required medical coverage.
