MS. PERINO: Okay. We're on our way to Florida; wanted to give you an update on a couple of things. You have the President's schedule today -- we'll hit the fundraiser and then he will have the meeting with the Cuban American community. This meeting will reinforce the administration's commitment to Cuba, to a free Cuba; and it commemorates the Grito de Yara, which is "the cry of the Yara," which was Cuba's declaration of independence from Spain on October 10, 1868 -- and we'll have a backgrounder that we release later today.

At 6:15 p.m. the President and Mrs. Bush will meet back up and they'll have a photo opportunity with the 2008 Little League Softball World Series Champions at Charleston Air Force Base. And at 7:45 p.m. they will be at Kiawah Island for a fundraiser, and we'll get back to the White House tonight at 10:45 p.m.

The President taped his radio address right after the speech today -- I'm sorry, after his remarks in the Rose Garden. And the topic is going to be on the economy.

An update for you on the specific schedule for tomorrow morning. The President will meet with the G7 finance ministers and heads of international finance institutions in the Roosevelt Room, which will be at 7:15 a.m. -- stills at the top. And then at 8:05 a.m. the President will make a statement with the ministers there, in the Rose Garden. And again, 8:05 a.m., and that will be pool for cameras and open for correspondents, just like today.

A little bit --
