Hi Everybody, I’d just like to give a few details about the Powwow. The plan is to meet in the center of Girona (in front of the Post Office) on Sunday the 3rd of June at 11 am. (The date above follows the American system of writing the month first and the day second.)
We’ll take a walking tour around the beautiful Jewish quarter and visit/tour the Jewish History Museum together. (We’ve arranged free entrance and a short talk about the museum). Then we’ll have lunch together at a local restaurant.
You won’t want to miss this event! Sign up soon!
- The more the merrier / Quants més siguem, més riurem / Cuantos más seamos, mejor lo pasaremos
PS. For those of you who are interested, I'll be verifying IDs.
Parafraseando a Mumik, me apunto a pesar de mi inconstancia y espero que hasta la fecha no surja ningún imprevisto¡¡¡Creo que va a coincidir con la exposición floral "Girona temps de flors"??
Una bona idea. La data és en format internacional, no nord-americana, perquè comença amb l'any. És un format que facilita posar coses en ordre cronològic, i per a evitar la confusió que hi ha amb els dos altres sistemes.
Hi, I am called John too. I am a regular visitor to friends who live in Girona. I will be in the city on 3 June and look forward to attending the pow wow
Les tengo envidia de la buena: reunirse en tan bella ciudad. Me encantaría participar, pero estoy del otro lado del charco. Ayer celebramos un Powwow en Santo Domingo y fue todo un éxito. Les deseo lo mejor y que se diviertan.

A few preliminary details
Mar 15, 2007
Hi Everybody, I’d just like to give a few preliminary/provisional details about the Powwow. The plan is to meet in the center of Girona around noon on Sunday the 3rd. We’ll take a walking tour around the beautiful Jewish quarter and perhaps visit/tour a museum together (we’re working on obtaining free entrance to the museum). Then we’ll have lunch together at a local restaurant and, afterwards, have a short time of sharing about who we are, where from, etc.

- As I said, this is provisional and details will take firmer shape as the time draws nearer. You won’t want to miss this event! Sign up soon!

Data/Date/Fecha

AH! Però... es pot aparcar i tot?

Quan s'acosti la data ja us demanaré detalls als Gironins de mena, perquè la meva experiència en aquesta matèria és més aviat galdosa... >:)

Parquing/Parking
Mar 28, 2007
El diumenge al matí serà fàcil trobar lloc per aparcar molt a prop d'on quedarem. Us mantindré informats. ........................................... It'll be easy to find a place to park on that Sunday morning near to where we'll meet. I'll keep everyone informed.

................................................................................... Quería confirmar que, como parte de nuestro turismo cultural en Girona y tiempo juntos, hemos podido contactar con el Museo de Historia de los Judíos, donde se nos dará la bienvenida con una introducción a dicho museo y donde se nos ofrece la entrada gratuita. Este es uno de los museos más visitados de Girona y da un gran trasfondo a la historia medieval de la ciudad. También quisiera hacer saber a los que están interesados que pueden utilizar la oportunidad de la Pow wow para verificar su identidad. Si tienes preguntas sobre la verificación de la identificación, házmelo saber. ▲ Collapse

The ID verification is a possibility that is optional for those who desire it. The idea is that you show me your DNI or other form of identification with a photo and I will then place a √ symbol that will appear in your profile saying, “ID verified”. That adds credibility to your profile and shows you are not just a cyber invention. Even with a picture and name in your profile, no one really knows if you are who you say you are. As I said, it is optional and your decision. It is only a check of your ID, nothing else. It does not guarantee your qualifications or ability as a translator. ▲ Collapse

Hi, John.
Sice this is an informal meeting and we're gonna take a tour around the city, I'd like my husband to come with me. Does he have to sign up too? I know you're trying to arrange free entrances, I don't know if you need everybody's names...
Thanks for organising this!
Maria

Apr 10, 2007
Thanks for the question Maria. Everyone is welcome to come. This first Powwow is really meant to be a social gathering for getting to know other translators. (Future Powwows may have a more specific agenda). Anyone can bring their partner, friends, children or whoever they would like to. A couple/few weeks before the Powwow, I will ask everyone to confirm their attendance. At that point, I will need to know the exact number of people so we can reserve a suitable restaurant, etc. Feel ... See more

Data
Apr 23, 2007
Hola Helena, espero que puguis venir el dia 3. Ja és massa tard per canviar la data i el programa, però tindré molt en compte el teu suggeriment de l’arquitecte pels propers Powwows. Tinc pensat organitzar més trobades més endavant. Potser tindrem l’opportunitat de col•laborar!
