Time and place to meet will be determined once I know  where the participants are starting from.

Tried to do this trip a couple years ago but the weather did not cooperate. The moon will be setting early so if we get clear skies we should see a bunch of meteors.  

UPDATE! Shi Shi Beach is closed so I am updating this trip to Third Beach.  I am not at all familiar with this area but looking at the WTA we do not need permits, so this may be easier even though it may be a longer drive, sigh.  Caveat is that we will need to get there super early due to parking limitations so I will update everyone on the plan closer to the event.
