Europe

[Alcibiades]

Leaving for Europe in a couple of days, and wondering if anyone still wants to do a London/Ghent meet?  And when is the Vienna meet again?

Oh, I also haven't bought my train ticket, a global  pass for Europe, the price made me depressed.  Is it significantly different if you buy it in Europe?  And is there any way to get a non-furriner rate, or are they anal about checking credentials?

Forget the global pass.  Buy tickets as you need them.  Unless you plan on being on a train every second day it'll be cheaper (though less convenient).

I think I mixed up the months. 

I'm going down in July.

This. Also, most countries have their particular offers which might be more convenient for you. For instance, in Italy you can buy the "Carta verde" (http://www.trenitalia.com/cms/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=1c3be6155d5ba110VgnVCM1000003f16f90aRCRD)

I'm incapacitated with an achilles tendon problem atm  , otherwise I would come down to London to have a few beers with you.

a devastated ankle didn't stop me from limping through half of Istambul with you

[Alcibiades]

Well, I'm visiting a lot of different cities.  London, Paris, somewhere in belgium, amsterdam, cologne, berlin, dresden, prague, munich, Freiburg, Vienna, Athens, Venice, Rome, Florence, Barcelona, Madrid, Lisbon, back to Paris > London.

I was under the impression I would need a global pass, especially as this will encompass 7 weeks?

[Oexmelin]

I am in Paris in June.

[Alcibiades]

What days?  I think we'll just miss each other, though.  I'll be there from May 23-26/27th.   And then potentially around July 4th-5th.

[Oexmelin]

Yup. I arrive the 30th of May and leave the 26th of June. Bah.

I'll be in the US next year.

[Ideologue]

I'll see you in London.

[mongers]

I'll see you in London.

You're in London, when ?

[Ideologue]

Not really.  I just say that in all the meet-up threads to feel like I'm part of the gang.

[Pedrito]

When will you be in Venice?
