Well, not really "drops" of Jupiter, but it was visible last night. Jupiter and Venus were both out last night, just below and to the right of the Moon.
After I got home, I pulled out my grandpa's old binoculars and brought the young'uns out to take a look at them. They were duly impressed, as was I. I think this was the first time I saw planets - at least, the first time that I saw them and recognized them for what they were. It was a neat experience, particularly seeing the kids all dazzled.
