Arrow My 1st Scope

Picked up a SkyWatcher 8inch collapsible Dob from Adelaide Optics for $599. Was going to order a 10inch from Andrews but my wife was concerned about storage when not in use!

Can't wait to get it out tomorrow night. Any suggestions as what to look for first? I have the "Star Walk" app on my iphone which will hopefully help me locate objects!

I should probably mention I live in metropolitan Adelaide so I'm not too sure how that will affect things. Maybe I need to cut up my old swag and make a shroud?
