Those i mention above are so true, my Family from Montre'al always coming down To Nyc to visit.

Every time i go to Haiti, my Freinds always want me to bring back some Rum, Magones,SugarCane, or Some Gold -(Braclet, Earnings, or etc)

I tell sure i'll bring them some magones as long customs, don't confisdate from me.
