Solar eclipse: 29 March 2006

I've just booked my flight to Istanbul then on to Antalya
for the eclipse on 29 March 2006. This is my first total solar
eclipse, and I'm looking forward to it!

Other than the obvious, like not getting so caught up
in equipment that I miss the actual event, any words of
wisdom from the more seasoned eclipse watchers
around here?

My observing equipment plans are a pair of binoculars,
and a camera on a tripod with a longish lens. I'll leave
the telescopes and stuff for another time.
