20" at AstroAdventures

[Star Struck 97]

:hello2:Between Saturday 13th Feb and Saturday 20th Feb, dobserver, Dark Knight and myself went on holiday to AstroAdventures nr. Bude, as some of you may know from dobserver's thread. Whilst there, we enjoyed 2 fairly clear skies and one completely clear sky. Me and mum grabbed the 20" dob whilst dad tackled the 8" motorised scope. Whilst there, I claimed M81, M82 (Bode's nebulae) and M106. We also saw Mars, M42, M45, M51 and much, much more!

What a lovely family holiday, I bet you had a great time. Not many kids of your age get to look through a 20" Dob so you are really lucky there.

That must have been a real trip to remember. Did you get vertigo a the top of the ladder?
