Anyone traveling soon? Need some Irish Cream :=)))

7 years ago

Greetings.

Anyone traveling to North America, or Europe anytime soon?

Here's the thing : I need Irish Cream (LOL)

I'll explain. My favorite alcoholic beverage is Conway's Irish Cream. Unfortunately, it's not sold here in Panama (or anywhere in Latin America).

2 months ago, I visited Germany. On my way back to Panama, I bought and brought 3 bottles of Conway's Cream with me (they are super-cheap in Germany).

As I can't get it anywhere here, I was wondering if anyone is visiting the US, or Canada,.........or Europe anytime soon, so I could I place an order for a couple of bottles or so.

(Even Mexico has it. I remember ordering Conway's when I visited Cancun 2 years ago. The hotel I was staying at had it in abundance)

Not sure what exactly what the limit is for bringing in alcohol through Panama Customs. Someone told me that 3 bottles was already over the top. But, I didn't have any problems when I brought them in in April. The customs guy opened my suitcase, and asked : "What's this?"
I said : "Irish Cream"
He shrugged and waved me through.

Maybe he was in a good mood, don't know )))))

In any event, I just need as many bottles as is allowed. My expense, of course.

So, if anyone's making a trip, and doesn't mind bringing some in for me, drop me a line.

Here's what it looks like ;)
