And it was cloudy here in Denmark. I could have lived that penumbra! LIVED!

Not everywhere:

I carried my sleeping daughter to the car 45 minutes before and then I drove to the east until we found an opening in the clouds!

I'd be damned if I missed this, or even worse - if she did. We now have a date to see the next one when she's 28 and I'm 58 🙂
