Final checklist: Are you ready? - Page 2

Take the Metro to get from the airport to the hotel:

Take the M2 line towards "Vanløse" and get off at "Forum"

The Cabinn hotel is just 300m from the "Forum" station:

(The little blue "M" is the Metro station)

I would suggest that you forget your gun back home.
Geez, cowboys...

Besides I think the airport might have an alarm bell ringing, when scanning your luggage.....

Onkel Neal · 09-10-09, 10:58 AM

Haha, Freudian slip

Backpack with maps, gun, beef jerkey - check

I meant: GUM!

Us cowboys don't need a gun in Denmark, it's very safe.

Yes, I will e-mail my mobile number to everyone who has turned in a meeting registration form, so watch your e-mail.

Von Hinten · 09-10-09, 12:43 PM

Good idea on the cell phone number. I was going to ask for that too.

How's the weather around there? Does it match our 40 Celsius degrees (about 120-F degrees for the US folks)? Something close? Or do I have to grab my winter leather jacket already?

Laptop, MP3 thingie, clothes, "DKKs" (there are ATMs there, right? :P ), my ID (us europeans can travel without passport, that's cool)... what else?

limkol · 09-10-09, 03:44 PM

The weather is ok here at the moment. Mild in the day (around 20 degrees Celsius) but cool at night (11 degrees Celsius). If you are used to 40 degrees Celsius right now you might feel the difference....especially if it's windy. You can get the forecast here:
http://www.dmi.dk/eng/index/forecasts.htm

It's in English and German.

ATM's are everywhere and all major credit cards can be used. The currency is Danish kroner. Euros are not the official currency, so are not accepted everywhere. Try not to change money at hotels, airport or railway stations, as you don't get the best rate of exchange.

The water is fine, but the beer is better.

See y'all soon.

martes86 · 09-10-09, 03:55 PM

Ok, that's chilly. I'll definitely have to take some thick stuff.

Onkel Neal · 09-10-09, 05:10 PM

Thanks, limkol, good info. I'll bring a thick jacket, it's 33C here right now.

The e-mail just with my mobile just went out.

keptincranky, you're e-mail bounced, send me another e-mail.

McBeck · 09-11-09, 01:23 AM

You included my cell number too right?

Onkel Neal · 09-11-09, 07:30 AM

No, I wasn't sure you wanted me to. I will do that now, thanks.

mapuc · 09-11-09, 06:23 PM
