== Weather ==

The weather looks like it will be pleasant with highs of 10&deg;C (50&deg;F), and lows of above freezing.

== Airport ==

The closest airport is [http://www.veniceairport.com Venice Airport] (VCE). This is the airport called Marco Polo. Do not confuse it with the other airport (Treviso) which is not nearly so convenient.

Two ways to get from the Marco Polo airport to the meeting location:

*1. Take the [http://www.alilaguna.com/?lang=en Alilaguna boat] for St. Mark Square. From here, take the line # 1 direction Piazzale Roma and stop to Ca’ D’Oro. (This is the recommended way, just for the experience)

*2. Take a bus ([http://www.atvo.it/airport.php?ld=orari_vat.ihtm&id=1-0 ATVO Air Terminal] or [http://www.actv.it/home.php autobus urbano ACTV linea n° 5]) to Piazzale Roma. From here, take the line # 1 direction Piazzale Roma and stop to Ca’ D’Oro.

From Ca’ D’Oro there is only a small bridge to reach the meeting venue (at 30 m from the palace). IWA / HWG can provide staff to provide navigation assistance if needed.
