Tonight is La Noche Buena

Uruguayans will celebrate late into tomorrow morning with parties, families, friends, otra gente, with food, drink, parijas and fireworks.

Christmas, some will go to churches in this secular country.
Most will spend a quiet family day off.
Like a shut-down government, most everything will be closed, save essential services.
Shop ahead for food.
La gente zealously guard this labor-free day; second only to El Dia de los Trabajadores (May 1)
This year, however, one named store will open it's doors and some will work on the xtian's day.
Yes, they are volunteers, guniny-pigs at the top of this slippery slope towards corporate domination.
The store chain is named 'Tienda Inglesa'.
