We had a discussion at lunch today about how to make sure all women at NANOG know about net-grrls. At most NANOG meetings we try to get together and have lunch or dinner. If you are interested and are not already on the net-grrls mailing list please drop me a note and I'll send you subscription information! Thanks! ---Cathy

Or you can stay in the train station and take a septa train two stops free with your amtrak stub. Ask one of the amtrak folks for the next train going to east market. That is two blocks from the hotel Brad Sent from my android phone Samuel Weiler <weiler(a)watson.org> wrote: >On Sun, 9 Oct 2011, Chris Morrow wrote: > >> you all can just walk out the 30th st station, drop down the septa >> stairs and catch the train toward Frank<something> ... 2$ gets you 2 >> stops (13th st) and a short jaunt around the block to loews.

Heads-up - train from PHL airport to Loews is closed 8-9 Oct.
by Ren Provo 09 Oct '11

09 Oct '11

Hi folks, While the train from the airport in Philly to the Loews Hotel on 12th and Market is usually the best way to approach City Center, this weekend it is closed for repairs. Apologies for the short notice but please plan to either take the bus or jump in a cab ($30ish) to reach the conference hotel. The good news is the weather is lovely and the various marches towards City Hall have been colorful experiences this afternoon. See y'all here soon! Cheers, -ren

Being from Philly, I'd like to add that once it gets dark out, I'd highly recommend only using a taxi to travel between 30th St station and the hotel. Even though it's a short walk from the train station to the hotel or the hotel to evening events, I'd still travel by cab and not walk. Or try and walk in groups.

Please leave laptops/bags at your hotel
by Ren Provo 09 Oct '11

09 Oct '11

Hi folks, The social this evening at Comcast Center - https://www.arin.net/participate/meetings/ARIN-XXVIII/social.html is open to registered NANOG and ARIN attendees. Please do wear your conference badge and leave all possible laptop cases or bags in your hotel room. The view from the 43rd floor is worth the trip over after the Community Meeting. It is easy walking distance from 12th & Market, around City Hall, to 17th & JFK Blvd. Walk towards the tall building that looks like a USB stick! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comcast_Center_%28Philadelphia%29 details a few other trivia facts about the TV wall, height, railroad tracks below the lobby area, etc. This is a casual dress event. A few folks asked if t-shirts and jeans are acceptable and the answer is yes. There are many venues to explore after the mixer on the path back to the conference hotel. It would be fun to see NANOG shirts sported at http://www.tirnanogphilly.com/ Just a few to consider would be: Table 31 (lobby area at Comcast Center) 1701 John F. Kennedy Blvd, Philadelphia, PA 19103 Tir Na Nog Bar & Grill 1600 Arch St, Philadelphia, PA 19103 Field House Philly (S&D event location from June 2009 NANOG) 1150 Filbert St, Philadelphia, PA 19107 Registration opens at noon. See you at the Loews! Cheers, -ren
