Transportation
- You shouldn't need a car at the retreat.
- From the Airport there are shuttle services available or Taxi from the Airport should cost between $30 and $40.
- Public Transportation The bus route nearest the La Jolla Shores hotel is MTS Route 30, and the route nearest the conference site is NCTD route 101. These routes can be used to get to some places nearby and (with transfers) could be used to go further (such as downtown or the airport) - though be forewarned that this would take 1 hr+ depending on where you are going. The NCTD system connects to the MTS system (#30 and #101 share several stops), and they take each others' fares. For more information, you can visit the MTS or NCTD sites - also, the Google Maps transit planner may be helpful if you want to use this. The UCSD buses require a UCSD student/faculty ID.
- If you drive to the retreat, your best bet is to park in the Pangea Parking Structure a couple of blocks south of the The Village. You'll need to buy a parking permit which will be available in a self-serve kiosk at the parking structure. More information is available here.
Dining
- We'll provide a continental breakfast and boxed lunch on Thursday and Saturday.
- There are also food (and coffee) options within walking distance of the retreat location.
