We saw it! Despite the clouds and predictions of thunderstorms here in Hangzhou today, we were lucky enough for the clouds to part just long enough for us to see the amazing total solar eclipse from a great location at the Hyatt Hotel on the West Lake.

You'll be able to see from the video I will put up later that we did have a lot of clouds, put luckily we could still get some good views, some good pictures, and have a lot of fun with the other eclipse-viewers.

Unfortunately, my setup wasn't as nice this time so my video wasn't as good as the one I took in Egypt (if you'd like to see a great eclipse video, take a look at that one), but it was still an amazing experience. I'll add more within the next couple of days.
