Those staying at the Ibis can get on the sightseeing bus from the bus stop outside Hauptbahnhof at 10:26 to save walking and pick the best seats. 
The bus stop is on the middle island (B) closest to the Ibis. Don't miss it (as I did yesterday 
) by looking at the timetable. I'll see some of you there.

The shuttle bus will depart at 2:10 pm at Steig A at the central station. We will take the shuttle bus back at 5 pm and we will be back at INN central station at 5:28 pm.

Looks like a great Do, szg !
Thanks NewbieRunner and Tom911 for the great photos. It is a lovely city and looks like you are having s great time.
Nice to see so many familiar faces from past Do's. And szg, I think you were the kind gent who dropped me at the MUC HI express after an airport Do many years back .
I look forward to seeing 1 or 2 of you in the next few weeks.
Have a great time, and safe travels. John.

I think it's 10am at the restaurant, which is on bus route C or M. The nearest stop appears to be Hafen. There's no direct service from Hauptbahnhof but we can figure something out. I plan to leave the Ibis at 9:30 if anyone is interested in getting lost together.

For the brunch today we will meet at the Hilton lobby at 9:25 am. We will take the bus at 9:32 am from the "usual" busstop. We have to change at the central station to the bus "M" and have to get out at the Innrain/Campus Wifi station. From this point it's a 5 minute walk to the restaurant.
