Hi, Maybe some of you remember Janne from the Leonids a few years back? Anyway he is travelling from Finland to Venezuela for this eclipse. If you or another amateur astronomer you know of are going there to view it, or if you know some website of the astronomy club there or some website of eclipse chasers can you let him know directly via his email in the cc. Please email him directly. Here is a part of his msg: Thanks! Jennifer Polakis My next big travel will be to Venezuela. I will fly there on 23rd March and return back to Finland on 12th April. The annular eclipse is on 8th April. I go there alone, first to Puerto Ayacucho to see the jungle and the Orinico river, possible to learn how to trek there in those wet conditions. I will also check the Merida environment (mountains). Now a question: Do you know anybody from your country who will also go to Venezuela? Or tell me which would be a good web forum to start asking it? Before the eclipse you better join some larger group to ensure your possibilities to have up-to-date information and move quickly to have clear skies.
