Default Just got back home

as many of you read, I've been in Florida for the last three weeks and got home about 10 hours ago. First I took a long nap, damn jet lag, then I did some groceries and after that it was time to empty out the suitcase and cooler I brought back with me (the box I send home hadn't arrived yet).

This is what I brought back, most of it are purchases but there are also cigars in the pile that were bombed and given to me. Along my trip I met up with old friends and made a lot of new friends who were all more then generous. Now I won't mention everybody by name, because I will probably forget a couple and I don't want to hurt someone's feelings.

This is what I brought home:





There are three bombs that I want to specify though. The first one is from Cigarcop who smacked me in the head with a georgeous and heavy ashtray



The second bomb I would like to show is one by Stearns, he knew I was looking for a pipe lighter and the moment I pulled up at EPIC, Smoking Gator gave me an envelope from Ben with this lighter and a cigar.



Last but certainly not least was a little something from Chingas. He started 'Team Death' which I renamed to 'Team Pink Bunny'. Guess Chingas thought it was time to stop that chit, so he bombed me some stickers, some cigars and ............


































a pink bunny




Thank all of you, not just for the bombs but also for the friendship, the hospitality, the laughter, the knowledge shared and the good time I had. I keep saying I want to visit Cuba some day and Asia again, but I know that my next trip will be to a destination in the USA again to meet my brothers from my cigar family.

Just to make it clear, Carlos made a typo. Nothing freaky went on, although he mentioned my 'cojones' to his wife

EPIC 4 is not going to happen for me, unfortunately. But Epic 5 is already marked on the calender.
