[net.astro] When is it best to view Halley's Comet?

I am planning a trip south to view Halley's Comet after
perihelion.  I have been told that perigee is on April 11,
is this also the best time to see the comet?  When is it
farthest north?  It seems to me that how far north it is
will be of greater importance than how close it is, but I
am not sure.  Any help you could give me on this would be
greatly appreciated.  Reply by EMAIL, I will summerise if
there is interest.

Thanks in advance.
