The long awaited Total Solar Eclipse finally arrived! Levi was so bummed to be in Korea when the total solar eclipse was at 99.4% totality right in our own backyard!!! The weather was looking a little sketchy in the days prior, so we were praying and praying we would still be able to see it! The school had a fun day planned, so I headed on up there to sit with first grade (keeping their glasses on was a little bit of a concern). It had rained for some of the morning, but by lunchtime the clouds were clearing and we were hopeful it would say that way! It was SO gorgeous as I was walking up to school. But when we walked outside to find our spots, the clouds rolled in and they rolled in thick. We saw a few seconds here and there but most of it was a bust. With our glasses on, we could see the shape of the sun behind the clouds, but it was hard to see much. We did feel the cooler temps, the darker feel, and the crickets and cicadas started chirping. Even the school lights came on outside. So it wasn't a total bust, but still quite a bummer! Next time, we may have to road trip to totality!!!!
