Parties and more Parties in Punta...

As it happens every year, by December 26th Punta del Este gets crowded. And suddenly, from no activities at all, we start having three or four invitations a night to parties, dinners and other diverse gatherings.
Of course, the first one to "open fire" was the already famous Lacoste Party in La Huella, on the 27th.
Even some French friends of mine told me that on the Air France flight from Paris to Buenos Aires there were people interested in getting the brazelet to get inside.
I was there, together with other 999 people, because in total we were a thousand.
As usual, it was very well organized and this year it had a plus hit: Cyndi Lauper, 80s' rock icon, gave an-hour-long concert with her band at a specially designed stage. With excellent voice and charm, Cyndi was hilarious and even sang barefoot. There was a lot of wind and a little cold, so of course our hair-dos (which hair-dos?) disappeared the minute we stepped out of the car!!
But who cares...? Everything's allowed in Punta... Among other attendees, were sportsmen Diego Forlan, Marat Safin (with a massive tan) and Gaston Gaudio.
Yesterday I also went out, this time to the opening night of Sipan, a peruvian-japanese restaurant in Manantiales. Exquisite cuisine and very beautiful people (Valeria Mazza, for example).
Tonight there's even more events... Will I feel like going to any?
We'll see...
PS: For those who were wondering... Peter Dundas por Pucci dress, Louboutin shoes and Judith Leiber minaudiere...
