PECM 2009 - PAN EUROPEAN CELICA MEETING, GREECE - 21/22/23 OF AUGUST 2009 Options

[mapia1001]

Hi everybody!!

Everything seems that PECM 2009 is going to be in Greece.
So it would be a 3days meeting combined with a holiday there.

I suggest to take the boat from Ancona, Italy to Igoumenitsa, Greece on 20 August and the return from Igoumenitsa to Ancona on 28 or 29 August.
If you are all together we can deal for special prices for the ship. So it's very important to specify in the list who is interested in.

I'm in contact with the track. It's ok for 22 of August but I have to call them again at the end of September for the confirm.
Found an hotel between the 1st and 2nd peninsula of Halkidiki with parking and other facilities, so we are close to many places.
I'm also waiting for other solutions by a friend who has a travel agency there

The general idea is to have the meeting first (meet at Friday, track on Saturday, a tour all togother on Sunday) and then 5-6 days free to go around the peninsula of Halkidiki. The sea is very beautiful there and end of August is quite outside of hot high season's prices.



Here is the general program of the meeting.

Here you have some shots from PECM2009 in Greece. So sad I have not been there with my ST-T (it would not handle 3500miles trip ) but "just" with my stock JDM GT-four . Enjoy:
