Transportation

By Train -- Trains arrive at and depart from Stazione Centrale on Piazza della Libertà (tel. 040-412-695), northwest of the historic center. There are, on average, two trains an hour to and from Venice (2 1/2-3 hr.), where you can make connections to Milan and other Italian cities. There are also twice-hourly connections to and from Udine (1-1 1/2 hr.). Two trains a day connect Trieste to Budapest, Hungary (11 hr.), three daily to Ljubljana, Slovenia (3 hr.).

By Bus -- The bus station is on Corso Cavour, to the left of the train station (tel. 800-915-303; http://www.saf.ud.it). Frequent buses (28 a day) link Trieste and Udine (1 1/2 hr.), and many other towns throughout the region. There's also one bus Monday to Saturday (check for the schedule, as it often changes) to Ljubljana, Slovenia (2 3/4 hr.).

By Car -- Trieste is a 2-hour trip from Venice along Autostrada A4.

Central Trieste is easily navigable on foot, but the footsore can use the extensive network of TT buses and trams (tel. 040-425-001 or 800-016-675 in Italy; http://www.triestetrasporti.it) that runs throughout the city. You can purchase tickets at any tabacchi (tobacconist) for 1.05€ for 60 minutes (valid for 4 hr. on Sun) or 3.50€ for a day pass. One foot-saving route is the no. 24 line from the train station to the hilltop Castello di San Giusto and its adjoining cluster of remarkable buildings , or call a taxi at tel. 040-307-730.

    I will be there.

    I won GA, but since this is the only show I'm bringing my girlfriend to (and she's 5'2"), if anyone has 10C reserved and wants to swap, hit me up.

    I understand that Reserved is actually tougher to get than GA ... but, if you have a change of heart, let me know. I would also pay the difference in ticket prices.

    Regardless, see you all there!

    You can count on that! :) The usual PJ Cro crew, plus a bunch of many other casual and hard core fans, I'm sure!
