= Airport =
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seattle%E2%80%93Tacoma_International_Airport Seatac] is the international airport that you'll likely be using if you're coming from afar. Domestically, it is a hub for Alaska and Delta, and internationally there is regular service to Western Europe and Asia.
The airport code for flight booking is 'SEA'
Taxis from the Airport into Seattle can be ~$60, and ride services (uber, lyft, etc.) are now allowed to pick up passengers at the airport. https://www.portseattle.org/Sea-Tac/Parking-and-Transportation/Ground-Transportation/Pages/tnc.aspx Driving will take ~25-30 minutes to downtown except for at rush-hour when it will take longer.
The Link Light Rail runs every 5-10 minutes from the airport to downtown at a cost of $3 taking you to walking distance from the event venue. The train will take ~45 minutes to downtown, and runs from 5am until midnight.

Emergency number: 911. Non-Emergency police contact: (206)-625-5011
= Interesting local stuff =
* [https://www.thestranger.com/ TheStranger], a local alternative newspaper maintains a list of "things to do" each week.
* [https://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Seattle WikiVoyage] has a good overview of the main points of tourism in the area.
* [http://www.elysianbrewing.com/elysian-fields/ Elysian Fields Brewery] good beer, plus a great place to hang out.
* [http://www.thelodgesportsgrille.com/#!stadium/c66n The Lodge Bar] more good beer, plus a great place to hang out.
* [http://leavenworthoktoberfest.com/ Authentic Bavarian Oktoberfest] you can take the train from Seattle to Leavenworth for this. Book early, super popular. Amtrak train leaves King Street Station Seattle on 9/30 at 4:40pm, arrives in Leavenworth at 8:00pm. Amtrak train leaves Leavenworth on 10/3 at 6:08am, arrives back in Seattle at 10:25am.
* Scuba diving (dry suit)? The water is super cold in Seattle. Puget Sound is 54F +/- 1 degree F all year.
* [http://www.citypass.com/seattle/ City Pass] If you are interested in doing the tourist thing, the Seattle City Pass is a pretty good deal. It covers the top 5 Seattle attractions.
* [http://www.puzzlebreak.us/ Puzzlebreak] Any interest in spending an hour with a group of 12-14 friends in a locked room? Puzzle break is a fun group event where you have one hour to escape a themed room by solving puzzles.
* [http://www.livingcomputermuseum.org/ The Living Computer Museum] The Living Computer Museum collection presents the meaningful milestones in the evolution of computers and how people use them.
* [http://seattleanne.com/seattle-with-kids/ Seattle with Kids] Are you bringing family along? This list has some great suggestions.
* [http://www.seattlepinballmuseum.com/ Seattle Pinball Museum] Pinball action at it's finest. (One of my favorite pinball places. Single cover charge, machines are free to play, and they have beer. Plus it's in the international district so lots of good food nearby.)
* [http://www.museumofflight.org/ The Museum of Flight]
* [http://www.mohai.org/ The Museum of History and Industry] on the south end of lake union.
* [http://www.undergroundtour.com/ Seattle Underground Tour]
* [http://www.wingluke.org/ Wing Luke Museum] is a very interesting look at the Asian experience and history in Seattle.
* [http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=18892921 Gary Kildall's Grave]
* [http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=471 Jimi Hendrix's Grave]
* [http://seattlesnapshot.com/moreplaces/kurtcobainshouse.html Kurt Cobain's House]
* The Seattle Waterfront has [http://seattlegreatwheel.com/ a great wheel like the London Eye] and an [https://www.seattleaquarium.org/ aquarium].
== Local Things Wanted ==
* meejah is interesting in any cycling opportunities (but: I will not have a bike there, so rental/borrow suggestions welcome)
* [http://www.thebicyclerepairshop.com/bike-types] This shop is really close to AXIS (meeting venue) and Tor Seattle office.
* King County has one of the most extensive [https://archive.is/L0aV1 paved trails system in the country]. (Ironically, it is built on the old rail right-of-way for a private light rail system that used to connect all of the surrounding communities.)
== Craft Beer ==
* Out of control... Welcome to Beervana everyone!
* meejah likes craft beer: specific suggestions? Elysian Space Dust is quite possibly the best west coast IPA ever created. Get it on tap at Elysian Fields linked to above.
* Make sure you try Mannie's Pale Ale and Lucille IPA from [http://georgetownbeer.com/ Georgetown Brewery]. Georgetown only sells kegs to local bars. They do not bottle/can and they do not distribute outside of western WA. Georgetown Brewery was (famously) started by a Univ. of Washington graduate that "didn't want to get a real job."
* [http://pikebrewing.com/ Pike Brewing] was one of the first micro-breweries ever, founded in 1989.
* [http://www.schoonerexact.com/ Schooner Exact] is still owned and run by a husband and wife that originally started it as a nano-brewery "hobby".
== Local Regulations ==
While marijuana and alcohol are both legal in Seattle, consuming either in public (ie outside of a pub or home) is subject to a [http://www.seattle.gov/council/issues/marijuana-in-seattle $27 fine]. Both must also be purchased through licensed distributors and/or dispensaries.
