Side meetings
On Sunday and Monday April 6 and 7 three workshops/side meetings will be held. Note that departure of the bus from Reykjavik is not until 8:30 on Sunday since there is much less traffic then. Also note that there is an event in the canteen of MFRI on Sunday, which will limit the access to ground floor facilities somewhat.
