2012 Solar Eclipse

Ended up having a perfect view of the whole thing from our Tokyo rooms balcony with just enough high cloud cover that watching without appliances was possible much of the time.

So I failed to ignore it.

One funny thing was apparently a belief/story that chimpanzees freak out during eclipses. So one of the local news shows had cameras at the zoo where te chimpanzees proceeded to completely ignore it.
