Breakfast and Transit at FUDCon

A few more notes for out-of-town FUDCon attendees:

• When you check in at the hotel, you will have the opportunity to buy breakfast buffet vouchers for $6 each. The breakfast buffet is usually $14.95, so this is a pretty good deal. In fact, it's so good that we won't be bothering with pastries and drinks at the event.
• To get to the campus from the hotel, cross the road on the west side of the hotel (not the larger highway on the north side) to the blue VIVA stop. Buy a ticket from the machine for the ride to campus ($3.25 in Canadian coins or credit card only) and hop on the next bus -- the wait should always be under 15 minutes. Travel 2 stops to the York University stop. When you exit the bus, turn to your left (south) and cross three roads to arrive at the SEQ building. To return to the hotel, simply board the VIVA at York on the east side of the road, opposite from where you got off the bus in the morning. (Google map). TIP: buy VIVA fares at the campus at 10/$26 to save money on future trips, and split the 10-pack with another attendee.
• There will be a hospitality suite/hack room at the hotel, suite 316, open on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday evenings. On Monday there will be appetizers and finger foods too.
