It's that time of year again!
Time for the Cuban Festival!
It's been a few years since I've been, but I'll definitely be there this year!
So… COME AND DANCE WITH ME!
(Seriously, if you're a blog reader and you decide to go to the festival and you do see me, please come up and say hello.)
P.S. Despite the fact that I am not going to Miami for Cuba Nostalgia this year which would finally give me the chance to head out to the Cuban Festival in Echo Park, that festival was canceled this year due to lack of funds and the park not being available. Which means the San Dimas Cuban Festival is the only one in the L.A. area this year … and that is SO important right now! 😉
When is it Kikita?
Oops! Never mind! it’s this weekend. @ days before my birthday!!!

In a Cuban festival there should be Cuban music and or musicians can play the same.. Oscar De Leon, although I appreciate hes music, is not cuban and does not play Cuban Music. Furthermore, the festival should be held in a venue where one can enjoy a Cigar, specially if they are being sold there. The only thing the Cuban festival has in common with Cuba is the restriction presented.
