Hello!

This is my travelling plans from Sweden;

Tuesday 28th: Train from Trollh�ttan to Copenhagen. Fly from there to
Thessaloniki in Greece (changing flights in Frankfurt am Main).

>From Thessaloniki [???????????] (second largest city in Greece) I'll
take the train
to Larisa [???????] and from there the train to Volos [?????]. To
figure this out,
I had to use 1) Thomas Cook rail atlas over Europe 2) www.ose.gr and
3) google
translate. As far as I have figured, OSE only show direct connexions,
you have
to _know_ where to change trains. But then, I don't understand greek.

I have yet to decide if I am sleeping one night in Thessaloniki before
I go to
Volos, or if will try to catch a late train, giving me a whole day to
relax in Volos,
before the workshop begins.

I am thinking of staying at Alexandros hotel instead of Park hotel, as
the former
seems to be a bit cheaper (I asked Park Hotel about the IWP9 discount,
but it was EUR68 a night, and Alexandros was like EUR49). Have not
booked yet.

My flight back from Thessaloniki is on sunday 2th October before
lunch, so I
will take the train the day before. I have tried to avoid to tight
margins, to minimise
the risk of getting stuck somewhere. :-)
