got your voicemail - Sorry, at the time you called, we were soaking in the YMCA hottub.
It's a bit tricky for us to get down to pick you up. we're heading over early to get the hotel stuff straightened out and either shady grove or greenbelt is way out of the way during rush hour.
HOWEVER - it IS possible to get from metro to Balticon. I have personally done this at least 3 times.
There are two ways:
1) take metro to union station. Take marc camden line to baltimore. take baltimore light rail to hunt valley. walk about 2 blocks over to hotel.
(last camden line train out in morning is 8:05 am - option 2 might be more flexible)
2) take metro to greenbelt. take metro bus to bwi. at BWI, get transport to light rail station. take light rail to hunt valley. walk about 2 blocks over to con hotel.
Greenbelt bus is B30
Hunh! according to Wmata.com, you can also take Marc Penn line from new carrollton!
Alternative to walking over from hunt valley light rail, you could call us from the hunt valley station - we should be at the con by then and able to get you. no hour long wait this time *wry grin* we'd be mcuh closer.
Your metro smart trip card will cover the metro bus to BWI.
I recommend these sites for exact logistical planning:
http://mtamaryland.com/http://www.wmata.com/the light rail is $1.60 one way.
As I said, I HAVE done this. WITH luggage. Usually because I had to work & Kory had to have MSD there early and I was arriving after work.
It isn't a short/easy commute - but it can be done.
