5/12/2009We posted a Google map to show the route from the the train station to the hotel. However, walking is not recommended if you have luggage.
This is a residential area, some sidewalks are narrow, and with the hills around the lake it is steep in areas along the Google-calculated path. If you call the hotel at +32 2 655 71 11, they will arrange for a taxi or shuttle to meet you at the train station.
But if you have no luggage to pull along, this is a pleasant walk. Rather than take the Google-mapped path, you might rather follow Rue de Rosieres to Avenue du Lac to the lake and take the walking path. It's a pleasant stroll - and the weather has been nice too. 5/6/2009So - I'm cleared for takeoff on Sunday morning, unless the World Health Organization steps in at the last minute. ;-)
I hope everyone else is looking forward to this event also.
Please see the discussion list for some topics I'd like to see discussed in the hallways or somewhere in the agenda.
Please add anything else that comes to mind, and that will help us all make the best use of our time.
See you soon,

As a precaution and to aid in the mitigation of future infections, specific consideration should be given to the following:
- Consider curtailing all non-essential gatherings in affected communities.
- Consider postponing non-essential travel to countries, regions and communities where confirmed cases exist.

An interactive map of the distribution of cases can be seen at http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/health/swineflu/map.html?hpid=topnews. U.S. attendees may be wondering whether the swine flu outbreak will affect travel plans. We will post any information about travel advisories as the situation progresses.
