A total lunar eclipse- an occurance when a full moon passes behind the Earth, and the Sun's rays are completely blocked from striking the Moon. It happens once every 10 years’ time, making last night's total lunar eclipse the most recent!!! Wikipedia noted the next total lunar eclipse to occur in 2018, so did you guys manage to see this last night?
I was one of those lucky enough to experience this, and decided that I would like to share this rare sighting with my lovely readers.
PS: these photos are taken and provided by my friend. I made the photos into slide show so that it’s easier to see. Hopefully you guys will enjoy it!
Coming back to our travel theme, will you look up to take a look at the moon in other countries when travelling? Many of us may not think about it, but there are other experiences instead of shopping and visiting tourist attractions, like moon gazing. Maybe you can try this sometimes at night while travelling – Sit down relaxingly, have a coffee/tea, watch the moon and enjoy the tranquility. It might prove to be a refreshing and completely different experience after having a busy travelling schedule =)
Here are my friend's photos on total lunar eclipse:
