#PicnicIsHere - Video resumen del encuentro de Madrid // Summary video of Madrid Meeting - 17/08/2013

Finalmente, hemos podido compilar el vídeo de nuestro encuentro de Madrid, realizado el pasado mes de Agosto. Podréis ver imágenes de los que no pudieron venir, al igual que muchos momentos del evento, incluidas lecturas y comentarios sobre Orgullo y Prejuicio.

Nos encantaría haber puesto más cosas, pues todo lo que hablamos fue tan especial y bonito o divertido, o haber puesto más de nuestro trivial, pero creemos que con éste resumen, podéis haceros una idea del encuentro los que no estuvísteis y despertar un bonito recuerdo en aquellos que sí que fueron. Gracias a todos.

Nos lo pasamos muy bien, y esperamos seguir haciendo cosas para unir a los austenitas, mientras podamos. Por ahora, seguimos teniendo en mente que el año que viene, también tenemos otro doscientos aniversario de Austen, de Mansfield Park, y nos encantaría celebrarlo juntos. De momento, sólo adelantamos, que los que viven en Málaga o pueden estar ahí el día 14 de diciembre, que vayan reservando la fecha pues llega #AustenInMalaga :)

Finally, we have compiled the video of our meeting in Madrid, held last August. You can see pictures of those who could not come, just as many moments of the event, including readings and opinions on Pride and Prejudice.
We'd love to have put more things, because everything we talked about was so special and beautiful or funny, or have put more of our trivial, but we believe that with this summary, you can get an idea if you were there or raise a beautiful memory in those who went. Thank you all.
We had a great time, and we hope to continue doing things to unite the janeites, while we can. For now, keep in mind that next year, we have another two hundred anniversary of Austen, Mansfield Park, and we'd love to celebrate together. For now, we only advance, that those who live in Malaga or may be there on December 14, to be reserving the date, because it reaches # AustenInMalaga :)

Pic! Thanks/Gracias JASNA SAN DIEGO!!!

Even if you will see more pics of our meeting in Madrid, we wanted to show specially a pic for our Janeite pals in San Diego (USA). Gabi, very well known there, brought with her from San Diego, in her Mexican suitcase, these Austenland postcards, given by the Californian Janeites. We don't know when we are going to see Austenland yet, maybe in Christmas, but we love to have this little and full of love presents! Thank ladies and gentlemen, we hope to meet someday! Bring the Janeite power to life!! :)

Aunque vayas a ver más fotos de nuestro encuentro en Madrid, hemos querido mostrar una imagen especialmente para nuestros amigos austenitas de San Diego (EE.UU.). Gabi, muy conocida allí, trajo con ella desde San Diego, en su maleta mexicana, estas postales de la película Austenland, regalo de los austenitas californianos. No sabemos cuándo vamos a ver Austenland, tal vez en Navidad, pero sin embargo ¡nos encanta tener este pequeño regalo lleno de amor! Gracias señoras y señores, ¡esperamos conocernos algún día! ¡Viva el poder austenitas! :)

#PicnicIsHere: Our celebration of the 200 years of Pride and Prejudice in Madrid, 2013

Entrada en español aquí.

Por Mila

It seemed it would never come ... and it happened!And what a time we had!

A year ago we asked our janeite pals: but how is it possible that it is going to be the bicentenary of one of the most famous books of literature, and we have not planned any celebrations? At least, we, we could not afford. So we got down to the work from El Salón de Té (Jane's Site) and HablandodeJane blog, and we started to think too see what could be done with the limited, if not zero (except blogs, forums , facebooks, twitters, etc..) means we counted. And we have the immeasurable help of Almu (who designed the poster for the event, and much more) and Victoria Austen, the undercover genius ...

In the end, we came out the day we are going to tell you now:

We were on Friday 16th for a pre dinner which we had arrived early. We had to catch up those that already were together last year (see the chronicle here) and mee the people we had not had the chaned to meet before but in the internet:

Here we are Almu, Victoria Austen, ElizzyB, Mr. Hachi Chan Chan Hachi, DanceWithEllie (Hablandodejane), Marcela and Lady Briela.

Hachi Chan is a pro janeite, and shed told us about her travels Austen territories in the UK ... she showed us her bag of Pride and Prejudice. I think that Dely Darcy has one equal .... grrrrrs!!

Acquired in the Jane Austen Centre in Bath.

But the truth is that she also came with presents for all. All thoughtfull Hachi! She hitted the jackpot:

So here come the presents

Of course, we put the rings all that night and all the day of the Bicentennial celebration .. They are precious?? It seemed to me ... especially the detail ...

We went to bed very soon because some of us were tired of the trip and we expected a long hot day on Saturday 17.

We were in the Puerta del Retiro overlooking the Puerta de Alcalá. Madrid in August is a blast and there was no problem finding parking.What a miracle! Upon arrival, we met Hachi Chan, of course, in a perfect way: regency dress and picnic basket .... 

The photo made by "Mr" Hachi Chan. He takes awesome pictures! An artist ... (I do not say for this pictures, but for others that will be published later in this blog or Hachi's site)

And here we are in the meeting point. On the one hand, in Madrid almost nothing attracts attention, we were almost in incognito. Only someone made ​​a comment when he saw us all together in this fashion, but generally, in Madrid it is true the quotation "live and let live":

The representation from Mexico, Marcela and Lady Briela, in a perfect wayl!

With Colin Firth in the background, we made a great PhotoCall .... It was Darcy day!! Later, you will see more ...

Victoria Austen had chosen a place where we could be quiet, which was nice ... and there was shade! As always, her judgment was fabulous. So we moved into a peaceful place where we really were at our leisure ...

I really have nothing to envy to any event in the very Chawton! It seems that even the very Colin Firth, Darcy, could make an appearance at any time!

We started the evening with a presentation of who we were, and how we had come to organize this event. And then we started reading each one our favorite fragment Pride and Prejudice, commenting on why we had chosen it. It was a really beautiful, as we witnessed how Jane Austen comes in so many ways: by content, by language, by irony, by the feelings .... Here, in full reading.

We shared our views, all in a relaxed atmosphere in which you could feel the respect that Austen inspires us as well as the novel we were discussing. As always, Austen created the magic. And it could be felt in the group ....

Here's to Victoria Austen doing your comment ...

Her remarks were loudly applauded on facebook and twitter ... so great Victoria!

Then we took some pictures all together again in the PhotoCall. Each one took the opportunity to take a particular picture with their Mr. Darcy ...

Not forgetting the Austen Gentlemen who had the patience to share the holy WHOLE DAY! with us. If these men are not Darcys, Austen come and see it ....

Mr. Hachi Chan was wearing also a very funny T-shirt of Jane Austen, where it could be read ... "Jane Austen haunts me." Hachi Chan's passion for Jane Austen is well understood. And now we've added the rest! I said, a true gentleman Austen.

Well, but we do not we fall behind as Austen Ladies Janeites, or regency ... what you like best!

Now lunch time. Some had done their homework well and they took their own food in their little regency baskets. Other approached to buy some sandwiches in a nearby shop, but the result was very good. By the way, someone made a carrot cake and scrumptious chocolate. We tiptoed placemats, linen napkins, cups and glasses of chic ... I said, a picnic with all the letters ...

Hachi Chan gave us some more little details, and Elizzy distributed beautiful bookmarks as souvenirs for all, int this memorable day ...

After eating, and for not falling into a deep summer siesta, we proposed a Pride and Prejudice trivial, to see if our austenites pals fell short of the Bicentennial. 30 questions that I can assure you that many of them were not at all easy. Four groups were formed: Meryton, the Collins, the Bennet and Bingley.

The score was pretty tight and I have to say THAT I FEEL PROUD OF THEIR KNOWLEDGE. The questions were not easy to answer, you had to have read the book several times, and have seen the movies over and over again: all met, but the winners were ....The Collins! But there were prizes for the four groups:

It is important to clarify that "Colllins" are actually "Colins" with an L. As Victoria Austen was in the group, it is clear that Colin Firth was ... not Mr. Collins ... nest ce pas, Vic?

Which by the way, finally made their dreams come true ...

AND SHE TOOK HIM HOME!!

Between one thing and anothe, it was tea time ... but we decided it was best change of scenery, so we went to the famous terrace El Espejo, also near the famous Café Gijón. There was shadow despite the sweltering heat, but the setting was really wonderful ... That's right: no hot tea. Would have had to pick with spoon .... so we opted for iced tea, horchata, Cokes, lemonade ... It was such a hot day!

After tean some austenites retired to change their outfit. And other finished their journey here. It was a pleasure to meet and have shared together for one day a passion ....

So, finally, stayed for dinner. Gabi and Marcela brought us some beautiful postcards of the movie Austenland, because they had attended a few days before the premiere in San Diego, invited by the JASNA San Diego. Lucky you! And what detail bring us the official poster postcard! Thank you all too!

The day was ending. It was short, very nice .... and we look forward to meet soon!

We missed the people that couldn't come. We finally did it. Real and virtual together to celebrate, with all the respect, admiration, affection and enthusiasm, which is probably our favorite novel Pride and Prejudice.

A big hug to all!! It is a privilege to belong to this community austenite .... 

Thanks to all that came: Noemí, Juana, Julia, Gabi, Marcela, Aurora, Maica her gentleman :), Toñi and Mr Hachi, Nuria and her Mr Darcy, Mari Ángeles, Victoria, Scarlett :), Paula and her family, Raquel and also a great thought to all those who couldn't come like our Conchi, Eire (thanks for sharing and helping), Evelyn, Sanguichuela, Laura, Faride, Mª Elena, Jennifer and JASNA group in Denver, JASNA San Diego, Lales, Olivia, Estrella, Jota, Noelia and the rest who commented, participated or had interest.
