Who's going to be at the Miami Rum Festival? I'll be there from April 16th - April 20th. I'd love to meet up with some of you while I'm in town. It's my first trip to Miami, and I'm very much looking forward to the food and rum!

Rum? Yes please!

Many of the locals will be at, in, and around Miami Rum Fest.

I heard a rumor that two of the organizers of the event happen to be Moai. We're everywhere..... {sorry, you will have to insert your own scary music here, I'm fresh out at the moment}

When we get just a bit closer to the event we can work out better the who's gonna be where and when.

excellent. I'll be staying right around the corner from Patpong Road and Khong River House. I look forward to connecting with some local Moai while there!

So you're staying in South Beach then? Nice to be so close to Lincoln Road. But that is more than a walk over to the MAC for the event..... you getting a car? Or doing the taxi thing?

taxi. We figured we needed to be within stumbling distance to home at the end of the night. Got a place on AirBnB.

Excellent! LuRu and I will be there pretty much the whole time. A group of the judges are planning a trip to the Mai Kai on Friday or Saturday night and are looking into transportation options. If they get 25 people the bus would cost about $30 per person round trip. Let me know if you're interested.

I'll check with the rest of my group, but I'm sure that we'd be in for that. There are three of us coming from Indianapolis.

I will be at Rum Renaissance. Flying into Miami on Thursday the 16th. No car. I would be up for a trip to the Mai Kai so count me in. I am renting a car on Monday. I am spending the night Monday in Key Largo, Tuesday in Key West, and then back in Miami Wednesday night. I am flying out Thursday headed to Chicago and the Chicago Area Tiki Tour. Will stay in Chicago until Sunday night and then flying back home to upstate NY. Looking forward to hanging out with friends, old ones, and the ones I haven't met yet.

Sounds like there are going to be quite a lot of people here to meet in Miami. We're flying in from Indy on Thursday morning and leaving Monday afternoon. We all definitely need to connect, and I think there's no better place than at Mai Kai.

We'll be there. I'm in for the bus if we have enough. Otherwise there's Uber :)

Andy, I think this would go in nicely for dramatic music

Sounds like there will be enough for 2 buses. Our group counts 4 - and that's just us.

So, I haven't run into you yet. Hope to fix that today. I'll be in my fez near the main stage most of the day. Please introduce yourself and I can point out fellows not wearing the felt.

Personal Statement: Rum is Fun!
It's now Rum Renaissance Festival (again) like it was in the very beginning and we have moved to Ft. Lauderdale/Broward County Convention Center. Our host hotel is the Hilton Marina and we are on the intercoastal and only one mile from the beach.

Dates are June 9 & 10, 2018 and yes, we are the same time as Hukilau. We are coordinating with Richard, the producer, and think there will be a great synergy between the two shows!

Rum Lovers are welcome!
