Day visit - SALT and all the other smaller telescopes that I did not even knew are there. Extremely interesting, accompanied by a very knowledgeable guide.
Night visit - simply awersome! Could use the telescopes and saw - among much else - the Moon and Saturn. Very, very very cold, but it was worth!
