Emergency Contact

If you have a dad like mine, your family would like to know how to get in touch with you in case of an emergency. Usually there is a phone number for the Festival for that purpose, but I got a definitive answer that there will not be because there is no phone at the venue. When you think about a hippodrome (the word for a Greek stadium for horse racing and chariot racing) and see a photo of the one in Cascais, it makes sense: It's basically a big grass infield where the Festival will build some kind of structure, such as a marquee tent, for the teachings, with auxiliary tents for other uses, I'm guessing.
That means if people need to contact you while you're in Portugal, you'll have to give them the number at your accommodations and possibly your mobile # if you have one or get one over there.
