Wow…this time it’s going to take a lot more effort and time to get there!
~ Total Eclipse of the Sun at Ellis Beach near Cairns on 14th November 2012 (Image taken with Meade 8inch telescope)
It’s going to be another exciting adventure to get under the shadow of the Moon travelling from Australia to Vancouver then to San Diego to board a Cruise ship to view the total eclipse of the Sun off the coast of Mexico close to the city of Mazatlan.
This will be our 5th Solar Eclipse…. Wow, I think we can now call ourselves ‘Eclipse Chasers’ Yay!
I'll try and post my images as soon as I can, that is if we are blessed with clear weather....
Below you will see a map from the excellent website ‘Great American Eclipse’ you have to get right under the shadow path to see ‘Totality’ outside of this path and you will only see partials and the sky will not go dark to see the awesome corona.
