Well, that is one of the reasons why I, who lives in one of the worst sites for astronomy, the Netherlands, due to a cloudy climate and lots of light pollution, try to travel almost every year to a southern location.
Now it is one of my last days of my South Africa stay and we planned to do this again next year.
I posted my astrophotos on the Dutch astroforum.nl and really forum members answered 'jealous'.
About the sky ? Yes, more objects but the northern skies also have some nice jewels, such as the Heart&Soul, IC1396, lots of Cygnus objects.
Planets ? Yes, Saturn climbs higher.
