The Summit

President Rene Preval of Haiti speaking.
This is the center piece on the table at the President's luncheon. You can see the Haitian flag there.

This is our table

Well I made it through the weekend! It was a lot of hard work but definitely worth it. We had great advertising and were able to network. The event was a success and is very important for Haiti. This Summit we sponsored was about promoting tourism to Haiti. In the 80's Haiti was the most popular destination in the Caribbean. Now, Haiti is ready to build up the tourism industry again. I had mentioned earlier that Jeb Bush would be there but he ended up not coming. However, the President of Haiti was there on Sunday and spoke at the luncheon.

So I was staying on South Beach and wouldn't you know that on Saturday when I finished working and was ready to hit the beach, it started pouring and rained through Sunday. I was bummed about this but oh well so is life.
