In the middle of the night, I realised that the sun will be due north at midday. I almost had to wake everyone up to share this insight, but I was restrained...
My father finds being in the Southern Hemisphere very disconcerting as he has to think three times before knowing where north is! Also, he doesn't recognise the trees and the dawn chorus is all wrong (not that he can hear it these days, but I think he still just could the first time he went to the southern hemisphere).

ReplyDeleteGosh. I'd twigged the stars bit but not the sun, how awesomely confusing!
