RFI. That's Request For Information. I need to find out about stuff in Orlando, cigar shops, lounges, liquor stores, bars, etc.

Let me know the info.

And John, I can get on here from my cheap little Eurostar notepad, but not the laptop, still. Will see what those proxy changes did later when I get home.

Corona Cigars has three cigar lounges in the area, each connected to a fullt stocked cigar store, each with a nice bar with a good to great whiskey and beer selection, and nice places to sit inside. I've been to the one near Mouse World several times and enjoyed it.

I've never looked for anyplace else there as the Corona stores seem to see me through my stays

There are Total Wine stores in the area and there are ABC stores. I've not been in a FL ABC store, from the street some of them look pretty nice, but I cannot see through the walls, so it could be lipstick on a pig...

Travel safe and enjoy

When I did a search for shops, Corona came up like a plague.

I also saw the Total Wine and thought "How would I get it all back to KSA?"

I have to wait and see. Things could change, but at least I have an idea.

Thanks for the update on your access, Doug. Hope it's not malware on the laptop again.

Florida in general is pretty cigar friendly. Orlando, well, due to Disney and Universal, are a little less so. but get away from the big parks and you'll find plenty!

There is a very slight, oh so slight chance, that someone may need to go to the US to look at and approve an ambulance prototype for production.

At someone else's expense.
