December gatherings

As usual I mix up the date of the month and day of the week. So the right day and date of our third Monday meeting is the 21st of December.


That one will take place as usual at 11AM at Las Ostras, located on the waterfront, towards the tip of the Peninsula, about a block past the seafood vendor stalls at the harbor. The place used to be called El Mejillón, hence the sign of the photo below... It´s huge, with great views, and they can accommodate us rain or shine.











But our "special" year-end event is a potluck dinner party graciously hosted by Doris Hernández at her place. This will take place on Saturday, December 19, starting at 7 pm.

Please bring both a food contribution (can be meat or anything to be cooked on the bbq grill) and a beverage contribution.

The directions to get to her place are below, but if you have any questions, please contact her at dorisher at gmail dot com.

Directions:
 

a) If you are coming from La Barra or Punta del Este,

  • take Roosevelt Avenue towards Maldonado, following the bus stop signs that say "Parada (number)"
  • go one block past the sign for Parada 17 (corner of Mar Chiquita street), and
  • turn right on Salt Lake street. Drive for one block and you will see the house in front of you
b) if you are coming along the Mansa beach,

  • Turn inland at the traffic lights on Parada 24 of the Mansa Beach, into Avenida España.
  • At the first roundabout, turn right on Roosevelt Avenue.
  • After you cross Martiniano Chiossi street, turn left on the first entrance (Salt Lake street), and drive for one block. You will see the house in front of you.
This is what her house looks like.
