I didn't see anything about this being a Nomad group event.
There was no comment made concerning the guests that would call for one of your patented, instructive scoldings. The comments I saw were no more than observations.
How about keeping your version of political correctness out of it. It still remains no more than a party report.

there were more dogs than nomads there:lol::lol:

you know what's kinda funny...as I was remembering which mexicanos were present at the party...I noticed that ALL of them are white...osea...gueros..mexicanos who have rather white skin...not brown...Arce's are mostly gueros and some have blue and green eyes...Juan gets annoyed at the military checkpoints when they ask him if he speaks spanish!!

Now back to party planning...today, you are all invited to the opening of Sirena & Adrian (both white mexicanos) little Bistro taqueria..whoever you are and wherever you are from!!!

Well, I'm not going to get into the debate about who's who in Asuncion, but I am curious as to how it could be the first and, as usual, well attended? We do hope to make it to some of the future gatherings though.

As for determining from photos a local versus a non-local, Linguine has cousins born in MX that have blond hair, freckles and green eyes. Somewhere I heard that you can't judge a book by it's cover. Or maybe it was you can't judge a wine by the box it came in. Whatever.

I love the idea of having a wine-o wednesday .... we are so few expats here, that I think I will include Punta Abreojos in on the fun and see what we can come up with

Wish I had been there for the first one you all had !!

Good luck on the surf contest - beautiful weather for you, that's for sure !!

pls stop by Mulegena and have a piece of cake and lemonade with me !! There is a new juice out there called MARACUJA - passion fruit juice - try it, it is so delicious, I am not sure if this is a tropical fruit, native to Brazil, but we drink this juice all the time there.

shari - If you'd like I can lend you my world renowned 'Watch the Paint Dry' Tequila Fridays. Traditionally they've been held online so if possible someone should bring a laptop computer. I'll provide music and wet paint.;D

Love that Maracuya juice, but only on Mezcal Mondays.
