Four years ago.....

On this very day four years ago, my two sons and I were standing in the Wyoming prairie watching a total solar eclipse. The trip was years in the planning.

I wonder if we'll ever go anywhere again.

Great animation! The corona is a sight to behold, I saw it once in 1999.

The next 'accessible' total solar eclipse in on 8 April 2024, with totality crossing Mexico and the USA. I'm sure by then long haul travel will have resumed. Probably it will be more expensive and less frequent but people will travel again, especially to see a solar eclipse.

There will be one closer in Europe in 2026 ( best seen in Spain I think).

Great memories for you and family, must have been magical to share it with them.
