Sounds like your really enjoying that new scope, ya just can't beat aperture. Jupiter is always a good object to view, there is always a lot of movement with the moons and cloud bands. I can remember my first shadow transit many years ago, way before internet, saw it by pure chance and watched the whole transit. My Jupiter highlight though was watching the impact marks rotating into view after the fragments of comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 crashed into the planet.
