Some fun facts and interesting things experienced at the equator:

Observed N. of the equator, water drains CCW, -why we get hurricanes in the northern hemisphere

S. of the equator, water drains CW, why they get typhoons!

Directly on the equator, water does not spin down the drain.

I balanced an egg on a nail, directly on the equator, earning a certificate!

enjoy the pictures, more to come!
