I remember a total solar eclipse in the 50' - I was told to use a dark piece of glass, as I didn't have sun-glasses. It felt very dramatic and we didn't hear any birds during those moments, all was quiet.

Sometimes I yearn for that...total quiet. Then I remember that I will have it, eventually, for a very long time. 😉

Originally posted by wolfgang59 I went to Cornwall for the '99 eclipse in England which was
marred by clouds but still awesome. Almost Spiritual!
If I travelled half way round the earth to see some cloudy UK weather and some accompanying peculiar low light, I'd be tempted to find it spiritual too.
Originally posted by wolfgang59 Don't think so. Runs across US from coast to coast.
Googled it, appears that only the US is getting a total eclipse but others, including Ireland will have a partial eclipse... now we just need a cloudless sky.

London to Cornwall is a jaunt but not half way round the world!
Emigrated in 2010. 😀
