Boat Ride and Conference
Dinner
- Starting outside the SCC building, local guides will lead a walk
along the Lesum river (about 40 min, 2.5 km) to the departure point of
the boats. One group will depart at 16:30 (more scenic) and another at
17:00 (more rapid).
- The boat ride will depart at 18:00 from Signalstation
Vegesack
- There is an alternative group going with the 94 bus from
Seefahrtstraße bus stop in direction Schwanewede up to Bremen-Vegesack.
These depart at 16:54, 17:09 and 17:24. It is theoretically possible to
buy tickets from the driver, but as this option obviously does not scale
well; whoever joins this group is strongly requested to get a pre-paid
ticket (e.g. self-organize in groups of 4 and get tickets are reduced
rate from the ticket machine at Schönebeck station - these pre-paid
tickets only need to be stamped on the bus)
- For those, who rather want to go to Vegesack on their own: PLEASE
MAKE SURE TO BE AT THE BOAT DEPARTURE POINT AT 17:45 AT THE LATEST
!!
