There are still 2 days to go before Round 1 of the Olympiad. Tomorrow is the arrival day (and opening ceremony) with play starting on Wednesday. I've been in and out of the venue over the last few days, helping get my part of the tournament set up (pairings and team registrations).
One piece of good news is that soft drinks/water/juice will be provided to the players (always a good sign). The venue lighting also looks good, so there will be no complaints about that. And the other good idea for players/spectators who are here, the Budapest 15 day metro/bus pass is only around 15 euros, and is well worth the investment. There is a metro stop right outside the playing hall, while you can also use it to ger around the city during your free time.
