No iridia for me!!

I went to the trouble of entering all my lat longs for my NZ trip..... to hopefully see or even image an iridium or ISS with some nice scenery they seem to have buckets of here - also have buckets of cloud!... I did get the binos out once in Greymouth - it was cool to see the southern cross so much higher in the sky (42.48deg S) - Got as far down as 46deg but clouded in....

I even treated myself to a handheld GPS unit before my trip.... I'm going to start sitting directly under iridiums soon....
