Oops…tonight was the practice run…
The Moon checks its Apple watch heart monitor. Personal best! Just the carb loading and a decent hydration strategy.
I bet it will be cloudy tomorrow…

We saw it quite well in Germany. My son had bought some viewing glasses.
There is also a lunar eclipse on 28th August early in the morning. They are actually easier viewing experiences: the full moon turns blood red. They are also more prone to the “except for viewers in Scotland” syndrome.
I once did a star viewing at the “Dark Sky Park” in Galloway, which is essentially a cloud covered midgie swamp.
