Hi Pete,

Perfect weather (so far) here in the southeastern Mediterranean.
Anxiously waiting for the second half (reappearance).

I was impressed how bright Venus appeared .. and especially in relation
to the moon.

Back within the hour with lots of material.

Good luck with the second half of the occultation.

Anthony.
