[CMC] CCSDS Social Event, Sunday 10 April

[Adrian J. Hooke]

Folks: for those of you who will be in Athens by Sunday 10 April, we are 
tentatively planning a social event - an all day Sunday cruise to the 
islands of Porus, Hydra and Aegina. The cost to each person is 85 Euros but 
if we get enough people then we may be able to negotiate a discount. There 
are no guarantees about the arrangements - this opportunity came out of a 
casual web search at http://www.fantasy.gr/english/index.html - but so far 
the operators seem to be reputable and responsive. The schedule is:

SUNDAY 10 APRIL:

8.00 a.m. Transfer by motorcoach from Athens to Flisvos Marina and embark 
on the cruise ship.
8.30 a.m. sail for the island of HYDRA . In Hydra you have free time for a 
stroll, shopping or swimming.
           In the early afternoon sail for the island of AEGINA , passing 
through the narrow strait
           separating the Peloponnesian coast from the island of POROS . 
Lunch is served after sailing.
           Short stop in Poros. Upon arrival in Aegina you can either join 
the excursion to the
           Temple of Aphaia (extra cost) or walk around the main town. 
Finally, re-embark for
           the trip back to Flisvos Marina.
7.15 p.m. Arrival at Flisvos Marina and transfer to Athens .

Linda Kezer has graciously agreed to be the focal point for collecting the 
names of people who are interested. Please let Linda know if you would like 
to be included, plus any guests. Send your information to:

Linda Kezer <linda.kezer at nasa.gov>

Please pass this invitation on to your working group and BOF participants. 
It's been a long time since we have had a CCSDS social event, and this 
could be a great way to start the technical week in a relaxed and friendly 
setting.

Best regards
Adrian
