Well, for those of you in Europe, it will happen at about (1:30 am + 5 or + 6) so early morning. I am ready for a night outside in the freezing cold.

QuoteOriginally posted by: outrunMust be great to be exactly on the southern polar circle now.It's probably strange! I visited northern Norway around the summer solstice and having the sun in the sky 24 hour/day definitely ruins the body's circadian rhythms.
