    As you can see, I couldn't get an amazing picture cuz it was all taken on an iphone.. But the iphone was better to use than my mom's $200 camera.. cuz it didn't even show up on hers... but idk.. it was sweet.

    Cool, I've seen a lunar eclipse before! Not really the same, but w/e.
    Now I'll be humming Pink Floyd songs in my head all day though...

    Yeah, it got a bit boring after a while. Too many mosquitos, and the whole eclipse took about an hour.. And it was at like 8:30 in the morning...

    But still, it was neat.

    Not so much. My phone couldn't capture it.. but it got to the point where it was just like a crescent moon.
    I saw it at 9:20 AM. And yes, it was cloudy here too.
