Lunar obbing on top of Taipei 101

Post by ariefm71 »

Just came back from the tallest building in the world (is it still?). Took the world's fastest elevator (40sec from ground fl to the top!!!) and do quick obbing of the half moon from the 90th floor coin-operated 100mm binoculars. Fantastic view from a fantastic location :-)

Highly recommended!!!
