Hey Remus, thanks for organizing another great trip!
The list of observations for me is the same as Junwei's list - after all, he was the one who showed them to me
Thanks bro, for sharing the enthusiasm, knowledge, scope and even the star chart book

Re: How to use Twitter for astronomy?
Ok Gary, you've convinced me too - I've signed up for Twitter
What's your account btw? The one from which you post about the sidewalk sessions ...
