As you know, Astronomy Ireland is bringing a group to Antalya, Turkey, for a once-in-a-lifetime chance to experience the Total Eclipse of the Sun on March 29. We have now extended our booking deadline to Monday, January 16, after which the price will increase. Reserve your seat(s) for a 200euro down payment. Just call (01) 847 0777 and ask for Bernard or book online at www.astronomy.ie where you will also find full background details. This week-long excursion will include a direct charter, educational talks, an eclipse party, Antalya's various tourist attractions, and a seaside hotel (breakfast and dinner included) directly below the path of the eclipse for just 899euro. Those who experience the Total Solar Eclipse invariably count it among the most memorable experiences of their lives. This is the only direct flight from Ireland to Turkey for the eclipse--the last that is easily accessible until 2017. Please book early and forward this email to everyone you know! ============ Bernard Gaffney Executive Secretary / Eclipse Coordinator Astronomy Ireland P.O.Box 2888, Dublin 5.
