A quick report of the Kiama Blow Hole night. 23rd May, 2018.
Weather was great with no cloud but the slight N/Easterly breeze kept things cool.

For some reason, I couldn't get my 4" to focus correctly, so I just opted for the binoculars.
The moon was crystal clear at first but a little wispy high cloud made using a high mag a tad iffy.
A fantastic night was had with over 200 people turning up.
All had a great time.

The event was video'd by the local ABC (AFAIK), so there'll be some record available......somewhere. (I don't know where.)

Might see if I can contact Dave Finlay, as he ran the event & kept everyone
up-to-date on the visible objects etc.
Thank you Dave.

It was a very good night.

Hope all you had one too.

Regs, Laurie..
