After meeting a Paraguayan parent at Parent Teacher Conferences (Married to a Sri Lankan) we were invited to a "Paraguayan Night" at their house to honor the outgoing ambassador. We were the first ones to arrive about 20 minutes late and reminded about la hora latina. We were a little uncertain about what the protocols and expectations would be for a Paraguayan night hosted by a Sri Lankan in India so decided to play it safe. Soon after we arrived we were surprised to realize that the Paraguayan ambassador and his family weren't the only high ranking guests invited--we dined with the Uruguayan Ambassador and his southern cone neighbor the Argentine Ambassador/Consul also. Quite a fun evening in New Delhi and yet another chance to be reminded that our lives have changed a little bit.
