Solar eclipse
Papa, Riu, and Saoirse travelled to the bottom of Catalonia to be in the path of totality for the solar eclipse.
On the way we stopped off to see this windmill, generating electricity for when the sun would be eclipsed. Thank you, giant windmill.
We went to La Bisbal de Montsant in Priorat county in Tarragona to be right on the path of totality.
This is the view from mirador five minutes walk up from the town.
Eclipse photography is tricky, especially through those eclipse glasses.
This is what it looked like as the events began.
On the bottom right you can see the moon starting to cross over.
This man in the hat is in all our photos!
The moon is almost fully across the sun now.
I think Saoirse took this tilted photo.
A close-up view of almost total coverage.

We see you there!
Can you see it?
A few seconds later it looked like this.
This is the best picture we got, thanks to Riu!
Afterwards back in the village we liked this building.
For dinner we had sushi at the back of the van.
After a very successful solar eclipse we had icecream for dessert to celebrate.
