last year around this time, we watched the supermoon rise over the acropolis. this year, we got up at 3 AM to see the blood moon/lunar eclipse over our house. unfortunately, after weeks of clear skies, the clouds had started rolling in over the weekend, and when we got up, the moon was completely obscured by clouds. around an hour later, the skies miraculously opened so we could see the eclipse begin; right before the climax, however, the clouds came back in force, and the show was over.
