Police more than 10 years ago when we went through the checks at Columbus
Airport on our way back to France after our daughter's wedding - the one who
lives in Savannah, GA. I had a handful of Cuban cigars in my suitcase, which
they discovered. The officers'reaction was, at that time, adapted to the
political context: in a second, we were surrounded by a dozen policemen,
dogs, etc. They searched our luggage thoroughy - that's an understatement -
and I had to destroy the cigars, of course. We missed our flight. I was
allowed to keep the box ... I am very happy the US-Cuba Relationship gets a
bit less tense - I guess this is why your son could enjoy this Cuban cigar
his dad had bought when you last visited the island. F?licitations for your
Grandson!
