We will not be able to get the REALLY GOOD cigars. I smoked one 20 years ago out of 2 boxes a friend smuggled back. They were rolled with a certain ingredient that makes most people giggle and usually hungry. It burned for an hour and had great taste. I have not had any one that good since.

I am able to get the visa and I go every other year. I am going again at the end of May for the Bienal for 10 days. My good friend Sony did tours at the Partagas factory behind the Capitol Building for years and is still good friends with Kiki who is second in comand there. He always gives me some special cigars. Sony's neoghbor has a Nomad and then I saw one at the airport on the way out. I know there are a few 1915-1925 Cadillac's as I have seen a few.

Charlie is right. There is a law that prevents the export of the cars, plus even the totally worn out POS 56 Chevy is worth 25K down there. I have been trying to figure out how to get a COCO Taxi back here. I want one to cruze around Galveston in.

Hot VW's back in the early 90's went down there and were allowed to photo a mint black split window in a garage a old guy stashed it back when things went bad back in the day...the story alluded to many cars in pristine condition that are hidden and never driven and not many people know of outside of the family.
