To add to Asaf ' s list of "don'ts" can I suggest for future Wikimanias:
DON'T rely on buses to make round trips to get to venues
DON'T try to squeeze the whole attendance of the event through one revolving door to a venue
DON'T advertise "food and drink " when you mean a glass of fruit juice and finger food
DON'T hold the group photo at a venue away from the main conference
DON'T have music so loud it obliterates conversation On 18 Jul 2015 18:48, "Asaf Bartov" abartov@wikimedia.org wrote:
According to a volunteer at the registration desk just now, three buses leave at 7:00, drop people at the museum, and then come back to pick up the rest. I think this means:
DON'T assume the bus won't leave BEFORE 7:30, or at 7:30.
DON'T assume there will be room on the later trip if too many people
choose that instead of the earlier trip.
In other words, to ensure you make it to the museum with the buses, you should probably be at the lobby at 7:00 and STAY there if you don't get on the first trip, so that you don't miss the second one.

I will probably take a return taxi earlier; probably not too hard for people to arrange groups to do so as well!

Sounds nice since 7.6km is rather a long walk for an evening in unfamiliar place :)

What about the return to the hotel? Is there for each attendee to
arrange on their own?

Hi folks, we will have 6 buses for Soumaya reception outside the
venue at 7:00 and 6 more at 7:30. Your badge is your entrance to the reception, so please bring with you.
If you will take the bus on Hilton please ask for a sticker. If not,
just arrive presenting your badge at the entrance. We strongly encourage to you to leave your laptop at the hotel.
