lunar eclipse drive
I did my very first night driving last night with Ken, my driving instructor. As it turns out, it was a rare total lunar eclipse night. What a treat!This picture is of course taken off the net.. But it really did looked just like this.. Orangey, yellow, with a tinge of pink. Beautiful!
The clouds were covering the moon initially, but somehow they parted and we managed to catch a glimpse of it when we did a stop over at Possum Bay before heading back home. The radio was reporting the event live and when we finally saw the moon, people started to call in to the radio station too. Great fun! I drove for almost two hours. Because of the exceptionally bright moon, it did not feel all that scary driving at night.
