				| 
 |  
				| I'm interested in meeting up with people who want to pool together and somehow catch a taxi back into Dubai.  I'm booked into a cheapo hotel in Nassir Square -- east of Dubai Creek. 
 Where can we meet?  How do we find taxis way out at the conference's venue?  I'm from Doha, Qatar so I'm not familar with meeting places

				| Taxi and other information can be found here: http://tesolarabia.org/conference/faq.php
 
 Can't help with taxi sharing, I'm afraid.  Perhaps there'll be others waiting for a taxi at Reception who might be amenable to sharing a ride (I remember the long queues for taxis at last year's TACON).

				| Check out the traffic before you jump into a taxi - you could find it to be an expensive ride. |  |

				| Baedaebok - your best bet is to get a share with someone who is going to BUr Dubai - NOT Deira - and then cross the creek on an Abra. After that you can walk to your hotel. It seems a lonmg way round, but the Dubai traffic has to be seen to be believed. |  |
