The local bus will take you straight from the University to Kitchener's bus terminal (about 20 minute ride), there's no way you can miss it.

It looks like this plan would require the return trip to be from Kitchener (nearly hourly service), but getting there is pretty straight forward. Let me know.

If it works, I could be there by roughly 12am, if that suits you :P Seriously though, I can show up at 12 pm, and Timmy's sounds good because I'm sure _everyone_ on campus knows where that is should I get lost. And I hope those are comfortable couches. Great, now it all rests on me. If it works, I could be there by roughly 12am, if that suits you :P
