Alright, this is for sharing of your observation experience. Or, if you are arranging gatherings, star-gazing expeditions or just want some company to go observing together, you can shout it out here.
Personally I had some much sand flies bites both legs look like leprosy.
Yes... I also hate the sandfly there. Will become very itchy for quite some time after they bite you and if your scratch it, it'll leave a scar for a very long time...
Anyway, how the sky there?? Singapore is very cloudy..
Have a nice day.

It's very cloudy over there too for the 2 days... even rained on the first night until the next afternoon! But at times the sky really cleared and it was really a race against time.. haha...
Also saw the thinnest ever venus and moon (with earth shine) on the second evening. Coool!!!
And... Antares (Junwei) found M1 with ur previous 6" newtonian!!
