Popular Post Mark Balla Posted July 24, 2011 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 If you are unfamiliar with Austin and the area around the convention center I have created a Google map to help show where our favorite spots are. The LAVA-B-Q, NI Wednesday night party, Hotels and all of the local hangouts are on it. http://maps.google.c...bd2aae0f157d5c5 If you want to keep up with the latest goings ons and you have a twitter account make sure to follow @lavag as we try to tweet out current information during NI Week. my twitter name is @mballa For those that are still around on Thursday evening we usually meet in the Hilton lobby at around 6:00pm and all go to dinner together (majority vote) everyone is invited. I'll be attempting to video record sessions this year so if you see someone with a camcorder up front come say hi. I love meeting LAVA members at NI WEEK. Mark 3 Quote Link to comment
Jordan Kuehn Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Good map. Thanks for putting it together. Last year I really enjoyed the dueling piano bar you have on there. Quote Link to comment

Justin Goeres Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Everyone should be advised that it's looking like it's going to be dangerously hot in Austin this year during NIWeek. And I don't just mean crelf. That means that for everyone coming to the LAVA BBQ, we should all be aware that it's a bit of a walk (~1 mi) to get there. This isn't as bad as it sounds, and really, you can use the exercise. But it's going to be hot so take that into consideration. A good time to set up transportation is during the Block Diagram Party on Tuesday afternoon before the BBQ. Tons of LAVA people will be around, and you can probably work something out. Here are the transportation options I'm aware of. Austinites or others, chime in with your tips! Walking - The old stand-by. Carpooling - Find a (new) friend who has a rental car. I know that a few people have done this in the past; perhaps they've organized it on this very board? Pedicabs - There are fleets of pedicabs (example) that patrol the downtown area, and will take you to Scholz Garten if you want (assuming they haven't all died of heat stroke). Tip them generously! Taxicabs - It's a lot like carpooling, only you don't know the driver. Quote Link to comment
