I am in Menai and am looking for a good spot to observe on Sunday morning when Mars, jup and Mercury are within close proximity of each other. I need lowest eastern views at dawn though. Any suggestions? I am thinkg about the Otford lookout just inside the Royal National Park as I think I can pull right up to that in the car. The planets will be appearing at around 05.00 dpending upon elevation and there will be a 40 minute spot before the sun ruins the rest of the day! If you know a better spot we could meet up!
