Location: Nijmegen, the Netherlands
Time to start planning in earnest. Is everyone still planning to come? Who wants to do a lecture? If so, what about?
We're trying to get a small meeting room in a location very close to the train station which should cost us no more than about 10 euros per person in total (assuming we'll be about 20). The Apollo hotel is closest. It's not the very cheapest however, but room sharing can keep cost down. Also, if we book pretty much the entire hotel at once, we could try to get a discount. So who is going to need a hotel room? I assume some of the Dutchies will go home every evening?
Finally, we're thinking about organizing a trip to the Haltern museum (about 120km from Nijmegen). It's kind of out of the way, but very much worth the trip and apparently has one of the travelling Pompeii exhibitions at that time. Because of the distance and time needed to travel, we would probably plan this trip for the Friday afternoon, so, another question: when will you guys arrive?
