Would love to see one live!
China is at the centre of attention right now and it seems that almost everything has happened there this year. The latest is A Total Solar Eclipse today that will start in Arctic Canada, go through Siberia and Mongolia and end in China...

To the ancient Chinese that meant to sun was being eaten by a dragon!
It's never a surprise these days when eclipses happen so I wonder how the chinese view this one? As a good omen I hope!
That's interesting, thanks for sharing. I wonder if they considered the eclipse when Beijing got the games.

Possibly. I really think they picked the date based on the no.8 as it is considered lucky in China!
