OK, one last eclipse post! Here’s our happy band of Canadian chasers, post-eclipse.
Some were seeing their first eclipse. A few others, myself included, were chalking up eclipse #14. Eclipse virgin or veteran, the experience is always breathtaking and unbelievable. Moments after the eclipse ends you cannot believe you saw what you did – the sight is so unearthly. And you want to see another. The next total eclipse of the Sun is November 3, 2013, in the mid-Atlantic and over central Africa.

Whooohoo!!! One happy group of Canadians downunder with clear skies!
Glad to see the flag there. You should take it to every eclipse from now on. 😉
Hi Tunç – we have a big flag we usually bring with us but we forgot it this time! Luckily Janet had a stand in banner.
