First off I want to thank Delores and Robert for being our both official and unofficial Sponsors for this Party and allowing us to put their name on it. That happens to be a risky deal considering the crowd we attract and the damage we can do to their business reputation! LOL I also want to thank Marco (our Rocky) of Rockys Bluesbar and Restaurant for working as hard as he has to get and keep this together. Not an easy job considering the strain we are going to put on the joint that night. Hell just keeping track of reservations is enough to give someone a coronary.
Second I want to thank each and everyone of you who has both participated in the thread and is going to participate in the US Thanksgiving Party that is going to be held at Rockys in Sosua this coming week. We sold out pretty early due to the fact we can only hold 100 people for dinner and even at 100 we can hardly get it done. I assure you after speaking to Ted the Bartender that the Presidente's will be cold and the Rum drinks complete with rum! I had to twist his arm a bit!
If you are in town and would have liked to participate but couldnt get a seat please come by at 9pm for drinks and great conversation with a great group of people. I along with many others here can honestly say it will be the finest time that can be had in this country without going to jail afterwards!
I will be delighted to meet you and see all the folks I have previously met. No where else will you be able to meet all the people you have read for all these months in one place in the flesh. Bring any questions with you as well since most of the people with the great info will be there to answer them for you. These are the same people that have answered my questions I needed answered before I bought property and set up home here and are a wealth of information that would be impossible to reproduce anywhere in the Dominican Republic or the world.
Due to the change in the Peso from 28 to 1 when we made the menu and the current price which is over 40 to 1 the price of the Turkey Dinner has unfortunately risen to 249- Pesos. Not at all bad considering you get a nice meal, coffee and dessert but I want to apologize for this. We didn't know that the Peso would crap out like it did.
Dinners start being served from 6pm on. We hope to be finished serving by 8:30 to 9pm and just drinks after that.
I am looking forward to meeting and seeing all of you!
