Reminder - Tomorrow's (5/8/06) guided Tour through Trieste

[ICTP info point]

Dear All,

This is confirmation, for all those who have signed up, of tomorrow's 
guided tour through Trieste and its nearby region.

We will meet at 9:15 at the Stazione Marittima.

The bus departs at 9:30 from the square in front of the Stazione 
Marittima (to the left of Piazza Unita', looking towards the sea, on 
the waterfront in Trieste).

Its first stop is the Botanical Garden "La Carsiana" (www.carsiana.it), 
where you can take a look around the 6000 sq.m of parkland, full of 
karst floral species.

Afterwards, the bus heads towards Duino, a picturesque village along 
the coast towards the airport, where you can visit the Castle of the 
Torre e Tasso family (www.castellodiduino.it) and take a walk along the 
cliff path with spectacular views, which is named after the poet Rainer 
Maria Rilke who wrote his "Elegie duinesi" there.

The return to the Stazione Marittima is scheduled for 13:30.

The bus is free of charge, and places are assigned on a 
first-come-first-served basis.  You will have to pay for the optional 
entrance tickets to the Botanical Garden (3 euro, for groups 2 euro) 
and the Castle (ca. 5 euro).

There are still some places available, so even if you have not yet 
signed up, you are most welcome to come along to the meeting point at 
the Stazione Marittima at 9:15 and join us there.
