<p class=MsoNormal>Have you ever wondered what it must be like to walk though Kirstenbosch
Gardens at night? To hear the owls and other night birds, maybe see a lynx if
you’re lucky, be enveloped in the mystery and quiet of the gardens at
night time? Well now’s your chance. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>You will be walked slowly up the gardens by a Kirstenbosch
guide, to an open spot towards the top, where Astronomers from the Cape Centre will
be waiting with telescopes to show you some of the spectacular sights in the
heavens. This is a very special opportunity to see the stars, meet the Astronomers,
and spend time in the gardens at night. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>This event is taking place every Friday during February
starting on the 8<sup>th</sup>, and is open to the public. Meeting at 7:30pm at
the main gate of Kirstenbosch Gardens (lower entrance), the fee is R30 for
adults, R10 for children. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Star Walks at Kirstenbosch were instituted to draw attention
to light pollution under the auspices of the Dark Sky section of the ASSA. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>There’s a number to call to find out whether the
viewing has been cancelled due to poor visibility and that is 088 131 1001.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Star Walks will take place on February 8<sup>th</sup>, 15<sup>th</sup>,
22<sup>nd</sup>, 29<sup>th</sup>. <o:p></o:p></p>
