I most likely will not make it to the restaurant, but I will definitely be at the expo. I am looking forward to meeting as many of you as I can. So far, I've only met Celeste. She was kind enough to help me find my great grandparent's graves in Hayward and serve my mother and I a very nice portuguese lunch. I think I will probably make my own name tag that identifies me as a member of the "Azores Google Group" with a Portuguse flag on it. So if any of you spot a middle aged blond women sporting a name tag with green and red on it, it's probably me. So please, introduce yourself. Did any of you receive anything from the expo like a ticket or something to get in? I didn't so I'm hoping that's because we just sign in at the door. I have my email confirmation from when I registered.
