    Wow, this is even better and for humans too. Where's it, near the venue or easy access to it? I suppose it is only for students not senior citizens?

    Unfortunately getting a cheap flight to Madrid is impossible from Singapore! :( :(

    It work out to be 175 EURO for accomo + weekly pass.

    I will try to spot you in Madrid. Haha...... :p

    The hostel I am staying is just few metro stations from the venue. Have you stay in a hostel before?

    Yes, the air tix is so expensive from SIN. But if you really want to come, just do it so that you will not regret in the future. I am sure this year WC will be a fantastic one.

    I have stayed in a budget hotel, room for 4, no attached toilet/shower, common kitchen/dining room, etc when I went for the Melbourne CG in March. I suppose it should not be very different except maybe you have more people sleeping in the same area for a hostel. :p

    I think I should target next year's WC in KL - much, much cheaper and the 2008 Beijing Olympics! ;)

    Off topic-Not only BC Singapore folks..

    ..but BC folks in and around the neighboring countries...Def. a good place for a reasonable size BC gathering/get-together(I'm planning to go there myself also)...Now, we're just waiting for a certain "quite popular" M'sia-based BC representative to step up and plan this for us..(ahem, ahem, wink, wink)...;) :D
