Hi, can the team confirm a shuttle for those arriving at Borg El Arab at 01:55 on the 16th (LH676)? Thanks and regards, Johannes

That's what I'm worrying, too. I'll arrive just noon on 16th by EK931. But even if I couldn't find the shuttle, I will manage to get there anyhow.

Hello all / Sabaah al'nour, I am now in Cairo, al Souk el Tawfikia. Now Azaan of this evening just begins (so I guess). On Tue, Jul 15, 2008 at 1:01 AM, Takashi OTA <supertakot+wikimania(a)gmail.com> wrote:

B or C. (B has earth and in some hotels, only B type socket is available). If you have a laptop, your AC adopter may be 100-220V valiable, so no worry. But yes, getting a right connector is crucial. I'm in Cairo until 16th morning. If someone is willing to join, feel free to leave a message at 2773 5307.

I didn't read anything about Type B on the Wikimania website. This does complicate things for me as I don't have a proper connector. I come from India which uses Types C and D. But I am not sure if the Type C used in India will be compatible with the Type C of Egypt. Which type of socket does the Wikimania site have? Is there any facility there of buying/renting converters?

I'm sure that a big city like alexandria offers enough possibilities to buy converters if the BA doesn't have them herself. Best regards, Lodewijk 2008/7/14 Akash Shah <akash.great(a)gmail.com>om>:
