Why Isn't Everyone Talking About Cuban Pizza?

#CubanPizza  #Pizza #Miami #Cuba I have to pick up my partner, John, from Miami International Airport.  His flight arrives past midnight, and while this may cause many locals to groan, I’m actually excited. Any reason to be in the western parts of Miami-Dade County is also a reason to have  pizza cubana .

‘Fyre Festival 2:’ Ultra Music Festival Strands 80,000 on Miami Island

Compounding the problems was a tree that caught fire, leading city officials to declare no fire works for the remaining two days of the festival. It didn’t take long, but the fiasco surrounding night one of the Ultra Music Festival has already been  branded  “ Fyre Festival  2,” fueled in part by forecasts of a so-called “traffic apocalypse” that ultimately proved to be true. The massive electronic music event held near Miami ended in pandemonium when a fire broke out, stranding tens of thousands of attendees on an island without transportation. Some had to walk over an hour to the mainland in the dead of night. And there are still two more nights to go.
