Solar Eclipse seen in Tokyo
In the morning of May 21, Monday in Tokyo, from the balcony of my place, I saw beautiful solar eclipse. Of course I used sun glasses dedicated for this event.
I did enjoy it. Once solar shading started, the whole view from the balcony got darker and the temperature got colder.
After a few minutes, the sun became like golden ring from what I saw through the glasses.
Thank you, God. It was in fact the most beautiful show I saw in my life.
This show was actually seen not only in Japan but other parts of the world, California and Northern Texas.
The map and timetable is as follows.
