Patrick Hemingway, the grandson of Ernest Hemingway, hugs a child who handed him a Cuban flag, as his brother John, left, looks on in Cojimar, Cuba, Monday, Sept. 8, 2014. Along with a team of U.S. researchers, the Hemingway brothers are on a five-day mission to leverage their famous name to encourage closer ties between the United States and Cuba and, hopefully, open the way for scientists to gain access to the writer's fishing logs, a long-concealed and potentially valuable source of knowledge about the area's massive predatory game fish.

FILE - In this Dec. 19, 2011, file photo, travelers wait in line with their luggage at Miami International Airport before traveling Cuba in Miami. Hundreds of thousands of Cubans and Cuban-Americans fly in and out of Cuba each year thanks to the liberalization of U.S. and Cuban travel rules over the last five years. On Monday, Sept. 1, 2014, the Cuban government will enact new rules meant to take a big bite of that traffic, sharply limiting the amount of goods people can bring into Cuba in their luggage, and ship by boat from abroad.
