Where is Aotea (Great Barrier Island)?
William's "Pidgeon Post" Postcard
Robbie uses the The Astronomical Pocket Diary to
take a note of the day you'll arrive... and you can use it as a guide to
the awe inspiring night sky of Aotea.... Have you ever found your
way in the dark, the walking path being lit by starlight alone?
Here the stars are your "street lights" the sky is that dark! No city lights!
