Camp Smalltalk Roadtrip!

Countdown to ESUG!!! My plane lands in Geneva at 1020 on 8 September. I was planning on taking the bus to Annecy, but apparently there is only one bus that Sunday, which arrives at 2200. Is anyone traveling that morning from the direction of Geneva who would like to team up e.g. share a taxi, meet somewhere along the way, etc? Thanks!

I was planning to travel to Annecy that Sunday morning from Geneva, but i didn't know that there were no available bus. Would be great to team up with someone. Cheers,

Cool... Worst-case scenario, it seems that a taxi would be 100 euros or less, so if we can get three or four people, it would actually be pretty cheap!

Sean,
Look at http://www.frossard.eu/plans_lignes_fr.phtml. Click on the second route on the right - Annecy - Cruseilles-....Geneve to download the schedule. The second page is the Geneva to Annecy schedule. It looks like the blue columns are Monday - Sunday... Hope this helps. And if someone local from the Annecy area knows why I'm wrong, please speak up.... On 8/20/13 3:05 PM, DeNigris Sean wrote: Cool...

Tom, you have to look at the colums "Lundi à Dimanche", there's only 2 buses on sunday from the airport, 4 from Train station / Gare routières (you can go from airport to train station using local buses).Maybe you can team with someone to take a taxi ?

There is also an SBB train from the
airport to the train station which costs CHF 2.50. I'm arriving
at about 7:30 on Saturday.

Hmm, that schedule does seem to indicate a few buses in Sunday, but when I use their schedule form, no results show up for that day. Would a French-speaker please take a look and straighten this out? (and maybe it would be good to add our conclusions to the website)

(and maybe it would be good to add our conclusions to the website) I found 3 buses at 8:15, 10:15, and 12:30, and 3 more in the afternoon. They leave from Genève gare routière, to Annecy gare routière. That seems to match this table http://www.frossard.eu/pdf/annecy-cruseilles-geneve.pdf, though the times are slightly different. On the form, I guess you have to pick the correct departure and arrival points. It's also quite easy to swap day and month between the US and french notation for dates. Other than that it seems coherent with the PDF time table. -- Damien Pollet type less, do more [ | ] http://people.untyped.org/damien.pollet _______________________________________________ Esug-list mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.esug.org/mailman/listinfo/esug-list_lists.esug.org |

We've got two for a taxi from Geneva to Annecy leaving Sunday at 10:30am. It should be 105 split equally and will get in for the start of the camp instead of mid-afternoon for the bus. Anyone else interested let me know!
Cheers,

If you arrive GVA by plane, there is a machine delivering free train tickets to the city center where you pick up
your luggage. 7 minute train trip to the main station. Gare routiere is a few minutes walk from the back entrance of the train station. You pass a large postal building and then have a parking lot for busses on your left, Place Dorciere. Most travelers at the train station don't know it... Single bus ticket was 14 Euro.

I was wondering if anyone wants to share a taxi from the conference to the Geneva airport on Friday afternoon after lunch, say, 2:30 pm? The total cost would be about EU30 each if I can find two others.
