Welcoming summer party in Piriapolis!!!!!

[Maurizio]

Hello everyone!

Let's welcome the summer!

Saturday, December 15th 2007 there will be a party in Punta Fria, Piriapolis. David and crew from Uruguay Living and Steve and Chris from Coastal Uruguay confimed the 3rd Southeastron Coastal Uruguay Living in Piriapolis Party (SCULPP). Hahaha

I'll personally fire up the parrilla and we'll have drinks and music.

Everyone is invited! Please confirm and send me a PM for directions.

Hope to see everyone here!

Hi Maurizio and all,
15 of diciembre is the famous and fabulous 'Noche de las Luces' in Montevideo. It is a pity to have to choose one or the other of the festivities. Any flexibility with the party date?

[urufish]

Clara's point about the 'lights night' and her description of the thanksgiving get together gave me an idea about New Years. Many of the members are here without their extended families or friends.

Christmas and New Years is coming... For those of us here, in a foreign place, there may be some interest in getting together to celebrate these dates...

Piria is the closest place I know between Montevideo and the far east that you can see tons of fireworks going off from above. In fact, on a clear night, you can see the action in Montevideo.. over the horizon. A lot of people drive up to the top of San Antonio around midnight.. on both nights... to see these fireworks.

Could be that someone in Piria wants to host one of those nights...

Big OOPS! I ASS U MEd that Noche de Luces was mid month as it generally is. In fact, it is scheduled for
8 dic, this coming Saturday. If you are anywhere near the Rambla it is a "don't miss it" evening. Be sure to leave anything of value at home and prepare for a crush of people. It seems like the entire population, and more, is on the street that evening. If you are timid or uncomfortable in crowds this is decidedly NOT the place to be.

We hope to make it to Piria to Welcome Summer!

Hi All,
That is a great initiative of Maurizio and I will certainly try to be there. I would go by car, I got a toyota hi-lux and could take 3 o 4 others. So, if anyone is looking for transport, just write me an e-mail: renedeveer@gmail.com.
And just in case you don't remember who I am as I haven't been able to go on Thursdays lately; I am the Dutch bald one with long hair
Greetings
René

Getting Psyched! for another great party at Casa Negara! Really Hope you can make it this time, Clara & Chuck, Arrancopilto, Andres, Vissers, Uyallavoy (I mean Mercedes). We'll be there, of course, hoping to see the old gang and many new friends as well. We'll be bringing a big basket of crispy Fried Chicken, one thing you can't easily find in these parts. Can't wait! See you there, Ken, Marlyn, Lia & Ethan..

La tercera es la vencida (third time's the charm or something like that)

So I might even make it inside this time!

Now, I have to say that having a party with an ending time is TOO GRINGO Steve! Or Maurizio, I don't know who set the ending time Of course, if you wanted to go local the party would start at 10 pm or at 1pm I'm happy to know there's a party that doesn't conflict with anything else for me, and that I'm close enough to go by Codesa bus! My husband can join when he gets back from work.

Dear Southron,

I have been reading your book, "the southron's guide to ..." -- thank you it is useful information for an ex-pat. Incidentally, I met Steven this past weekend in Punta del Diablo and he mentioned this party on Saturday. I would love to join you folks and meet some people in the area. I have been looking for property in the Piriapolis area for a couple weeks and plan to look at more property next week. I usually stay at the Atlantico, nice, clean & quiet.

Please send to me the particulars - time - place - directions.

I hope this is not offensive in nature -- thank you in advance,
