I forgot something (of course I forgot something). On Friday from about 6:30pm I'll be hanging out in the Oliver Twist. It's a pub in the old town area, also marked on the map. For those arriving in Zurich that night, if you aren't too jet lagged come say hello and get some beers! That area is swarming with food shops and restaurants so don't worry about being hungry.
To make myself extra visible, I will be wearing something obviously non-Swiss, probably my eye bleedingly loud zen t-shirt, with a google cap (I can't find my CodeWeavers t-shirt *sniff*).
If you can't find us ask the bar dude/dudette for wineconf. If we move on for some reason I'll let them know where we've gone.

Hello everyone,
This weekend it is WineConf, in Zurich Switzerland. Here are some handy details.
Firstly if you get stuck, phone me. My number is +41 78 601 8607
For those of you staying at the Hotel Rex, it is only one tram ride to get to the Google office on Freigutstrasse.
Here is a map showing useful things:

Notice the tram stop just up the road. You need on it, heading to Tunnelstrasse. There are signs on each side detailing the stops it will make in that direction, it should be fairly self explanatory. Make sure you go in the right direction! You want the tram heading south from the hotel.
I'll try and get a photo tour done tomorrow during my lunch break. There'll be lunch Saturday/Sunday (just easy finger foods really), and CodeWeavers is generously buying us on Saturday evening at the Bierhalle Wolf (I told them to expect between 35 and 50 people for fondue, which might be a bit optimistic, we'll see).
What time are we going to start? 9:30ish?
thanks -mike
