How was your total / partial eclipse experience?

This question is for our North American myLotters, of course. I've been watching a lot of news about the eclipse in North America. I can imagine the excitement. I remember watching a partial eclipse back in 1985, when I spent a summer at my aunt's house. Everyone was outside and in awe of the sight. I might have experienced another one with my own family but I can no longer remember when it was. I did a search and apparently there were four eclipses that happened in the Philippines in 1985! I hope I got the data correct. Anyway, how was your eclipse experience? Did you watch it alone or with other people? Did you take photos and videos?

I didn't really see it my friend, what I mean is I did not look up. But I did go out with my sun hat and it was a yellowish tint all around.

I saw a solar eclipse once in 1995. When I was a pupil. We gathered together to watch the eclipse through a simple glass paper. We are very excited. Unfortunately I couldn't save any pictures.

That's wonderful. I hope that the next time we get to witness one, we can take photos and videos already!

I watched it on YouTube. I think I'll be watching more videos of the eclipse in the next few days.
