Your directions to the China Sea Marine Trading Co. in Portland's Old Port on Sunday, May 26th, 4 PM: the street address is 10 Dana St., which is off Commercial St. (the waterfront) almost opposite Dimillo's famous floating saloon. Other local landmarks include Amigo's Mexican Restaurant across Dana St. and Ship Wreck & Cargo at the corner of Dana and Commercial Streets.

Avoid Shanghai Brown's shipping office, and various flash girls and boys that hang out around Three Dollar Deweys. If you get truly lost you can always whistle up a friendly policeman and ask where the Shanty Sing is, or call China Sea at 773-0081, although we'll probably be making so much noise and having so much fun that no one will answer a phone.

Yes, you can bring some refreshments to share.
