From São Paulo: the bus
will leave the University of São Paulo at 09:30 AM from the Institute of
Physics, Travessa R (the street that

(Instituto de Física Teórica – IFT), located nearby the Paulista Wall Street
Hotel, at 10:15 AM. Next, it goes to the Guarulhos International Airport. The

and the map below) at 11:30 AM. Holders of the Dinners Club Credicard or the
Platinum Mastercard can enter the Lounge with no cost.
In case of any problem, don´t
hesitate to call 9157-0394 (Frederique)

From Rio de Janeiro:
Because of different arrival schedules of participants from Rio, we arrange the
following scheme for the conference buses.
1) A conference bus at the Galeão International Airport,
which leaves at 10:00 to Paraty. After
8:00, there will be a guide near the exit gate of each terminal, with a
placard, “ISMD06” who will inform you how to
take this bus.
2) For those who already in Rio de Janeiro, there is a
bus, leaving at 12:30 from the Othon Palace Hotel, Copacabana, which then stops
at CBPF (Centro Brasileiro de Pesquisas Físicas) at Rua Xavier Sigaud 150,
Botafogo, leaving there at 13:00.
We call attention that these
buses will not stop for lunch in the way to Paraty.
In case you have trouble on
the day, don´t hesitate to call 9124
0366 (T. Kodama) or 8169 2898 (I. Bediaga). For those who wants to leave Rio on
Sept.01 just after the NN06 Conference,
we suggest to share a van, that cost around 1000 Reals.
