              Where, when and how ?
             -----------------------

This  year the party will be held in Kristiansand,
Norway's 5th largest town, and tourist-city number
one !  To be more exact the party will be arranged
in Badminton Senteret, a sports-hall located right
outside Kristiansand centrum.

The party will start on 
   
30 July at 13:00

and will end on
   
1 August at 16:00

 How do you get there ?
------------------------
Let  us  first  of  all locate Kristiansand at the
map.   The town is situated right at the bottom of
Norway.

If you come from Central Europe, you can simply go
to  Hirsthals  in  Northern Denmark, and then take
the ferry directly to Kristiansand.  The ferry has
4  departures  every  day,  so  it  won't  be THAT
difficult to find one that fits.  The company that
runs these ferries is caled COLOR LINE.

For  those  of  you  who come from Northern Europe
(Norway,  Sweden  or  Finland),  there goes trains
directly to Kristiansand centrum.

If you drive by car, you simly find E18 and follow
this  one to Kristiansand.  If you come from east,
drive until you reach a roundabout.  Here you must
take  left, and then follow the signs saying eiter
"Badminton Senteret" or "Rendezvous".  If you come
from  west,  follow E18 through centrum, through a
tunnel  and  then over a river.  At the end of the
bridge,  follow  the  sign to "Lund", and then the
signs to the party-place.

For  the  rich  ones  among  you, there is also an
airport  outside Kristiansand, and a bus goes from
it  to Centrum.  Remember to ask the bus-driver to
stop at the bus-stop near Badminton Senteret.

From  centrum  there goes buses quite often in the
direction of the party-place.  Simply ask the bus-
driver  to  stop  at  the  bus-stop near Badminton
Senteret to get off at the right place.

The  following  buses  can  be  taken  to  get  to
Badminton  Senteret:   (But make sure that it goes
the right way!  (-:  )

 01, 02, 03, 04, 06, 07, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 23, 
 24, 35 and 36.

During the days of the party, we will mark the way
from  the  bus- stop to the hall, and also the way
to drive, if you go by car.
