I agree with Ana that these are all impression by self-selected people, not
hard data, but I would like to join the general consensus that day trip is
more worthwhile than the conference dinner. Personally, I found the boat
trip nice, but rather formal and static. There was almost no intermingling
once you sat down.

Contrary to that, both the day trip and the BBQ allowed people to talk to a
_lot_ of different people in an open and relaxed atmosphere.


I agree with Patty that a day outside which allows people to sit and relax
or to hike to one or tow locations of different difficulty would be best. I
agree with Martin that this can nicely be folded into a large BBQ at the
end of the day.

One thing to keep in mind: This is dependent on the weather, so if the
weather turns out to be bad, museum hopping or some such could be a cheap
backup.
