5th Annual Panhellenic Star Party
Grevena - Filipaioi
29-31 July 2011
Day: 01
29th of July was the first day of the gathering and the joy was painted in all of our faces. There were all old and new friends, most of them have not seen each other for more than a year since the previous gathering on mount Parnon, last year.
The sky during the day was full of coming and going clouds that made us all nervous about the night and the observing time, but right after the Sunset, everything got clear and we had the opportunity to observe the sky from one of the best observing points of all Europe.

30th of July was the second day in the camp of the area. Finally we had some time to see the nature all around the "Astronomy Camp" and attend a lot of workshops on "How To" do a lot of astronomy staff.
"Elizabeth Observatory" and the director J.D.Strikis had the honour to be the teachers of how to do "Solar Observing in CaK - Ha' and 540nm" workshop.
The second night had a much better seeing, but humidity stayed in the 75-85% with temperature 10-12oC.
