3DBC Tuesday Evening Meetup
-
I will be there as well. I am flying in from Australia on Sunday. I am staying in the Hotel Zico in mountain view. I have organised a rental car but I may leave it at the hotel as I am not used to driving on the right side of the road and it sounds as though there may be a few beers flowing. Anyone else staying at the Zico who doesnt drink and is used to driving on the wrong (right) side of the road please feel free to let me know....
-
I (and those who are presenting) will be staying at Grand Hotel - about 1 mile from Avante. See your "updated" map, Todd, here. I also added Wild Palms Hotel where Mark (and maybe some other folks) will be staying.
I will arrive at about the midnight before o I will definitely be there (and I guess earlier at Avante since I will be meeting with Mike and later probably Coen there). Anyway, when checked in, let's share each others' room phone numbers so that we can easily access each other later.
Mike will also have some "surprise" for you guys (well, hopefully - a bit of a problem with the logistics)
Is anyone flying from NY JFK to San Francisco Int'l Airport on flight (Delta Air Lines) DL 0073 on the 9th departing at 8:10 pm? Wouldn't be that boring if we could chat.
-
I'm not attending 3DBC, but I'll drive down from my work place in San Rafael to join to festivities. I'll probably meet you at Chilli's since it'll be a bit a of drive already.
-
Justin!! It will be good to meet you. Please bring some real drawings to show off!
-
Real drawings? What does that mean?
I hardly draw "in real life" or in Internet parlance, irl. But I'll bring my beat up sketchbook, that will show off my crummy sketches. I do make up for that by pasting SU printouts in it. -
I hope there will be another get together on the 12th and meet y'all as my flight gets in too late on Tuesday evening to meet.
-
Probably Thursday, as Google is providing dinner on Wednesday. Stay tuned.
-
Pete, you can come to Chili's straight from the airport!
BTW - which hotel are you going to stay? -
I am at the Grand.
-
Fine, mee too. And Jean and Susan and Coen as well. See some directions here.
-
John,
As far as I know Avante has (a free?) transfer from San José.
-
That is not what they told me when I called them. They only gave me a referral to a taxi service they recommend.

He has both towncars and taxis available, and the negotioated rate with the hotel to/from San Jose Airport is $35. Just mention my name and Hotel Avante when booking with him. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Hotel Avante -
Hm. Maybe I saw it on the Grand Hotel website?
-
Must have as I was told that there is a free shuttle from airport to Grand
-
My Alaska Airlines, Flight 2627, arrives at San Jose around 11:35-12:00(noon) on Tuesday. I suspect it will be around 1:00 before arriving at the Hotel Avante.
Anyone with a car be around by then to make an Airport run?
I'll pay for the gas, lunch, and beer/wine?My work number 503-977-6664 or 503-244-7005. Home 503-645-9368

http://www.BrownandCaldwell.comHey, Chris Fulmer, like to talk to you. I thought you were in Southern California. Our headoffice is in Walnut Creek.
-
But that's only because you will present there I guess.
-
I arrive in San Jose at 1:00 pm on Tuesday so I should be at the Hotel by 2 or so. Diner at Chili sounds great. Is there anything going on later in the afternoon Maybe at the hotel lobby we'll run into each other.
-
I'll be out of pocket for most of the afternoon on Tuesday - maybe getting to my Hotel (Grand) around 5-ish.
-
I'll be arriving at SF around 1:30 PM, and I'll take one of the airport shuttle services to the Avante. I'll probably be in the Avante lobby around 6:00 or so, if anyone wants to share a taxi to Chili's with me.
-
Lewis, I should be registered well before then at the Avante. Ross McIntosh may be in by then too. Check with the front desk, leave a message if need be with your room#.
I'll try "linger in the lobby" around 6:00.
Regards, John Clements
