Message: [QUOTE="ThisJustIn, post: 2347306, member: 382"] Will prolly start a new thread to identify who wants to go. Looks to be an interesting island... Annnnd, there's SCUBA!!!! :-) There also look to be some inexpensive, big AirBnBs... anyone interested? Below is some info from a friend... The venues for next year's World Cup are both in Santa Cruz: Santiago Martín [URL="http://www.pabellonsantiagomartin.net/"]Pabellón Santiago Martín[/URL], the primary arena, is in kind of an industrial area between downtown and the airport, while Quico Cabrera is maybe 10-12 blocks from the water. I believe they'll be using the same format as 2014, so games Saturday and Sunday (22-23), an off day on Monday, games Tuesday and Wednesday (25-26), another off day on Thursday, then the medal round on the weekend. My ambitious side is hopeful of finding a day or two afterwards to visit Marrakesh but haven't really looked into that leg yet. Look forward to seeing you there!

It's 20 minutes from the airport and 600m from the second gym, which seemed the most likely spot for the U.S. to end up for pool play since they'll want Spain in the bigger/better arena.

It's been approved for €15m worth of upgrades over the next 18 months [URL]http://Post original url/2tSVMxi[/URL], which is an odd timeline under the circumstances. Santiago Martín, which will host the knockout round, isn't much larger but is an ACB/Champions League facility. They're only about two miles apart, so at least fans should be able to choose games to attend on something of a daily a la carte basis, though it still seems strange the new 10,000-seater in Las Palmas wasn't made available… [MEDIA=twitter]887599060915544064[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=twitter]888088947427078144[/MEDIA] [IMG]https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&ik=eb1ee1b95a&view=fimg&th=15ebddd311d0fc49&attid=0.2&disp=emb&attbid=ANGjdJ_V_YG7D5YcPNYTR3rwRVZSkNp8WVocFO6EWC6gkBDOd0jqXvm0ltzYrF2pVR7oWVQIP9Il0vRbQF8GBKNov6MdvAyU1H9T0VizEhVYXm3hQ_H4iSr0xXmhsMI&sz=w1120-h708&ats=1506485116770&rm=15ebddd311d0fc49&zw&atsh=1[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
