Arrival Information

You can reach the hotel by taxi (approx. $15) or by special bus (number 222) from the airport terminal to the hotels (approx. $4). It leaves on the hour 6am - midnight from the front of the terminal building. Ask the bus driver to announce your hotel.

Proceedings

We intend to publish proceedings of the symposium. If you are presenting a talk you are asked to prepare a written version. If your talk is a personal memoir (first session) then the written version should be about one page in length. For scientific talks, please observe a limit of 6 pages. We would like to receive the papers by July 1st. More details will be given during the symposium. Thank you.

Transportation to campus

Transportation to the Tel Aviv University campus, where the symposium will be held, will be provided by buses from the hotels. If you want to come on your own, we suggest you take a taxi, since there is no convenient public bus between the university and the hotels.

Companion program

We would like to know about participation of companions so that we can arrange for suitable programs. Please indicate this in the registration form.

Weather

The weather in Israel during April is typical of spring.  It can be very pleasant (12-15 C at night, 20-25 C in the day) but there is the possibility of a hamsin -- very dry and hot. Evenings may be cool and there is some small probability of light rain.

Restaurants

There are many fish and typical Israeli restaurants a couple of blocks north of the Grand Beach Hotel and a couple of blocks south along the beach promenade.  Also (by taxi) in the "Yemenite Vineyard" and in the tourist quarter of Jaffa.
 

Sincerely,
Danny Ashery
