Venues, addresses, maps
Sep. 30th, 2009 04:41 pmThe main venue itself:
Park Bowling Club Kilbirnie
598-600 Evans Bay Parade
The Evans Bay Parade address is its official one, and those driving (depending where you're coming from) may prefer to come down that way. For myself I've always thought it was on Kilbirnie Crescent, and certainly that's where the bus will drop public transport takers. I can't get a number, obviously, but it's between the Wellington Regional Aquatic Centre (no 63) and the Ruth Gottlieb Library (no 101).
There's a fair amount of parking there at the park for drivers.
Walk in through the main front doors, but then instead of walking through into the bar, which will presumably be full of old folks in their bowling gear, hang left and go upstairs. Ideally there will be some sort of sign, *g*.
Those at the the 747 Motel just need to cross the road (you're at 80 Kilbirnie Crescent) and it should be somewhere vaguely in front of you.
From Courtenay Place, the bus you want is the Number 2 (Miramar). Those of you coming from Wilton will get the Number 14 (Kilbirnie) but I'm sure you know that. In either case you want to get out at the Park bus stop which serves the Aquatic Centre, the Library etc.
Those of you at X-Base need to hop skip and jump across from Cambridge Terrace (which is the helpfully unnamed yellow street running parallel to Kent Terrace in this picture).

Those of you at the Museum (unless you're cabbing it) just need to whip down thus:

Restaurants:
X-Base types who are joining us on Friday night, head down to Cuba Mall thusly. The Oaks is first (71-81, pretty much right opposite the Bucket Fountain) and upstairs -- look out for a grotty staircase and a sign. Olive (170) requires you to venture through the mall and on up to Cuba St proper.

Saturday and Sunday we should all be heading down together, but for safety's sake:
Siam Thai 64 Kilbirnie Crescent
Tandoori Heritage 23 Onepu Road
I'm assuming everyone will come Saturday, how many should I try to book for Sunday???
