===Fun===
* will follow after the event (latest)
We'll organize two small (1-1.5h) fun events for everyone. Both will include fresh air, which we'll surely need after sitting in that work room nearly all weekend long.


We've been asked if there'll be room in the schedule for everyone to go to the city and do some sightseeing. Of course there will! Actually one fun event will include a tour through the city of Basel which should cover that wish. The tour will be guided and in English. It will take place regardless of the weather, so please bring appropriate clothing with you.
= Blogs =


The other fun event is...a surprise! We're sure you'll like it. If you have clothing for the city tour, you'll be fine here.

==Budget==

'''Right now, we have CHF ~xxx to spend for the FAD.'''

Budget will be used in the following order (as far as it reaches):

# Accommodation (incl. city-tax) - CHF 2'461.60 ($2219.29) '''PAID'''

===FAQ===
{|
! Question !! Answer
|-
| [[User:petreu|P.R.]]: Do we have to exchange EUR to CHF or can we also pay with €? || [[User:red|S.M.]]: You probably could pay in many places in Basel with EUR, but normally have a worse exchange rate as at a bank. This is only a guess. <del>and I'll try to get a more accurate answer well before the event</del>. You can use a credit card in most restaurants and bars, but I think you'll need some cash now and then.
|-
| [[User:HenrikHeigl|H.H.]]: where are near Stores for electronic stuff if somebody need some additional stuff? || [[User:red|S.M.]]: You shouldn't need to get something. But if you do, there's a [http://www.interdiscount.ch/ Inter Discount] XXL-store nearby ([http://map.search.ch/basel/marktplatz-36 map]). There's also a [http://www.mediamarkt.ch/72.html?&user_mediamarktmaerkte_pi1%5bmarkt_uid%5d=1&user_mediamarktmaerkte_pi1%5baction%5d=details MediaMarkt] within the 'Basel SBB' train station.
|-
| [[User:HenrikHeigl|H.H.]]: will there be time (maybe 1-2h) for sightseeing? || [[User:red|S.M.]]: The [[FAD/FADEMEA2008/Schedule|Schedule]] lets me think there is (read "Sightseeing in Basel City"). There might be some time around lunch and dinner, anyway. You're also free to use your sleep time for such things, of course... ;)
|-
| [[User:HenrikHeigl|H.H.]]: where should people exchange EUR to CHR? Are at the Campus banks or so? || [[User:red|S.M.]]: Banks are closed on Friday evenings (17.00 and later, usually), Saturdays and Sundays in Switzerland. There's many cash dispensers around ([http://map.search.ch/basel/petersgraben-23?poi=hotel,geldautomat map] showing our hotel and all cash dispensers around). There should be a exchange office in the 'Basel SBB' train station that might be open on Saturday and Sunday, too. Your bank might charge you some EUR if you're getting money in Switzerland, though - might be better to get some CHF at home already.
|-
| [[User:HenrikHeigl|H.H.]]: Where are the Hotel and where is the "Workroom"? Are there maybe a google map available? || [[User:red|S.M.]]: Hotel: [[FAD EMEA 2009 Accommodation|Accommodation]]. The working room is at the nearby University of Basel.
|-
| [[User:cassmodiah|S.W.]]: Is all the food suitable for vegetarians? || [[User:red|S.M.]]: Yes! For all but Saturday's dinner, you're free to choice yourself what you want to eat, anyway. Saturday's dinner will be a Swiss national dish (what exactly? surprise!) but I can guarantee, that it will be suitable for vegetarians, too. You might need to indicate that you're a vegetarian at the restaurant, though.
|-
| [[User:GeroldKassube|G.K.]]: Power plugs/sockets in Switzerland? || <s>[[User:GeroldKassube|G.K.]]: Please be carefully, the Swiss have a different Power Supply and you need an Adapter for your Notebook</s><br/>[[User:red|S.M.]]: This is only partly true, actually. If you have an European 2-pin plug (i.e. an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europlug Europlug]), you don't need an adapter. If you have a 3-pin plug, a British plug or a plug with 2 pins and additional clips (e.g. the Type E or F used in France and Germany), you need an adapter to use the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_plug#Type_J_.28Swiss_3-pin.29 Type J] used in Switzerland.<br/>
We'll provide enough Schuko and Europlug sockets for everyone.
