A suitable week for the summer school could be
August 18-25, 2010. The decision to start on a
working day and not during the week-end was taken
because on Saturday the 14th and Sunday the 15th
there is a very important holiday in Italy that
could make transportation difficult and
uncomfortable. Furthermore flights close to
national holidays can become very expensive.
We scheduled August 18th and 25th for
arrival-registration and departure respectively
19-24 August are five and a half working days and
a free afternoon for a trip.
We are also planning evening activities that
could include meals outside the hotel, visiting
nearby cultural and tourist sites, music concerts
and movie projection in the hotels conference
room, parties etc.
There is also the possibility to organize a one
day trip on Wednesday 25th if participants want
to stay in Sicily an extra day or have an evening
flight.
