Still a few days before departure, and tonight we were scheduled for a tour of the Perth Observatory. After a whole week of cloudless skies, tonight was a different story altogether and the sky was covered in cloud, which of course prevented us from being able to do any star gazing. None the less, the tour guide showed us around the outbuildings and gave a general demonstration of a couple of the scopes which was interesting enough despite the disappointing cloud cover. He was also quite a character and a bit of a laugh at times which all helped to make the evening a most enjoyable one despite the lack of the expected viewing experience.
