Middle of the earth




We headed off on Sunday for the Middle of the world, where we could stand in both hemispheres.
We watched water go straight down the plughole on the equator, and swirl one way 3 metres away in the northern hemisphere, and the other way 3 metres away in the southern hemisphere.
We also balanced an egg on the head of a nail, and got certificates for doing it.
A great day, 40cents each way in the bus, $7 each in entrance fees.
