This scenis lake in Guatemala was the scene of a spectacular solar eclipse.
We watched when slowly but surely the moon took slices of the sun away, until at a certain moment, around 2.30 p.m., the sun was completely covered and indeed, it seemed as if it were evening. Flowers closed around us, animals screamed, and there a cold wind started to blow over the lake. It was a very gripping sight. It was possible to look directly at the sun, and we could clearly see some of the light of the sun trying to go around the shadow of the moon. Then, after more than 7 minutes of darkness, the sun slowly regained its normal position at that time of day. Indeed, we had just watched a highlight of our lives!
