Side is a great place - me and the weather widow went there a few years ago to get away from it all - stayed at the Kentia appt's, had a brilliant time - really friendly people - reminded me of Greece before they joined they got euro's, but that's another story
No worries about the weather for an eclipse- if it's cloudy it'll be a sureal experience, believe me I went to Cornwall for the last one never forget it.
I'm green with envy since you've managed to arrange a trip over there. We've been looking on the net for a way to get out there and stay on a limitted budget, everyone's upped the prices for the eclipse. I'd love to take my other half there. You don't happen to know of any deals do you?
Any way have a fab, memorable time - i gather there's quite a convention happening over there - enjoy
