Transit from Melbourne. Glasses a hit

[Chris.B]

Managed a good solid session till about 11 when it clouded over.
Then very limited till egress started and it cleared for 5 min.

I was at the local high school and must of had over 500 students from there and the primary come and see it.
Through the scope on the projected screen and the massive hit was the ice in space glasses.
The kids loved them. They were "so cool" and "awsome" :rofl::thumbsup:
The students loved in and the queue to see what 20-30 long at times and they were all eager to see the historic event.
I'm wrung out now but very pleased with the days activities.

Not great shot but they recorded the day.

I considered getting a few set of eclipse glasses to pass out to people but never got around to it. Sorry that I didn't because I had a few people asking me what it was like today. As well as getting some photos I also had a look at naked eye distance through my telescope solar filter (telescope didn't work - I just peeked through the filter) and the glasses provided a tiny but good view.
