Hi - taca@... said: > Have you decided your schedule?? Yes -- I'll arrive at Kobe on Oct 10 and leave on Oct 19. Will stay in the "Portopia" hotel on Port Island until Oct 17; for the last 2 nights I didn't book anything yet. I hope I can arrange something when I'm there, depending on opportunities for tourism or meeting people. Did I get it right that you (and some more people) are located in Osaka? I was told there is a good ferry service from port island. see you Matthias ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Forschungszentrum Juelich GmbH 52425 Juelich Sitz der Gesellschaft: Juelich Eingetragen im Handelsregister des Amtsgerichts Dueren Nr.

I'm unfamilliar with ferry services and it is sure that there is a ferry service from Portopia to Osaka. But that "Osaka" means KIX (Kansai International Airport) and it is hard to reach Osaka-city.

Hi - I'm in Kobe now, and had a look around in the area. (Had to find out that there is not much of restaurants and nightlife on Port Island, but it is easy to get to downtown Kobe.) Looking at the schedule, Tuesday (Oct 13) would be available to meet -- I'd be available from 6pm. > > Will stay in the "Portopia" hotel on Port Island until > > Oct 17; for the last 2 nights I didn't book anything yet. > Is it mean 16 and 17? No, I've booked the hotel until Saturday the 17th, my flight leaves on Monday the 19th. > I'm unfamilliar with ferry services and it is sure that there is a > ferry service from Portopia to Osaka.

Grab the Port Island monorail into Sannomiya. > (It's one of the big stations in Kobe, less than a ten minute ride.) Yes, I see myself now -- there is even a courtesy shuttle from the hotel to Sannomiya. And if everything fails, it is not much more than half an hour to walk. > At Sannomiya, you have your choice of three train lines that each > have a frequent expresses to Osaka, less than an hour, very easy > transfer to the city subway or the JR loop line. It seems that I can easily get to Osaka, either Tuesday or next weekend. best regards Matthias |

On Friday afternoon I'll have a tour to Himeji and the Spring-8 synchrotron scheduled until 19:30. And this is the opposite direction geographically, so it will become too late. On Saturday there is a tour to Kyoto, also organized by the conference. It will end late too, but looking at the map the route might touch Osaka... so there is a chance: I'll check whether the bus can drop me off at a train station or so close to the city. best regards Matthias |
