ProZ.com powwow: Informal meeting by the sea

Bonjour à tous et à toutes !

De passage sur la Côte Basque en mai, je souhaiterais organiser une rencontre afin de faire connaissance avec les traducteurs et traductrices de la région, comparer nos expériences et échanger des idées.

Le dernier powwwow organisé au Pays Basque remonte à juin 2005 peut-être serait-il donc temps de renouer contact ?

Merci de me faire part de vos suggestions pour un lieu de rencontre approprié.

Au plaisir de vous lire et de vous rencontrer à Biarritz pour un powwow convivial et ensoleillé :-)

Flo

*********************** DETAILS OF THE POWWOW ***********************
Date: Saturday May 9th

Time: 14h00/16h00

Venue: Transat Cafe on the rooftop of the Radisson SAS Hotel (take the lift in Reception) 1, Carrefour Hélianthe 64200 Biarritz T: 05 59 01 13 13



The Radisson is a few minutes walk away from the centre of Biarritz (there is also a large, free carpark opposite the hotel). Drinks and sandwiches will be available for purchase in the cafe.



Hopefully if the weather is good we'll be able to sit on the terrace and enjoy a panoramic view of the beautiful coastline :-)

FYI there is a spa in/near the hotel (Serge Betsen's Kemana) in case some of you would like to make the most of the facilities after our meeting.

Looking forward to meeting you on Saturday! May 6, 2009

Our table is booked, hopefully the weather will be as nice as it has been today, fingers crossed (there is an indoors bar if it rains, and the manager has agreed to give us a private tour of the rooftop anyway), so all we need now is a bunch of enthusiastic Prozians to turn up, I hope you can make it! I'll be there from 2pm and I'm looking forward to meeting youicon_smile.gif
