It gets darker here
You know how in the summer in the UK, it'll take hours and hours to get completely dark? In fact, there's only a couple of hours of proper darkness at the height of summer?
Not here. I can be working at my computer (which faces away from the computer) while it's completely light at 8:20pm, then turn around at 9pm to discover that it's dark outside.
I guess it's all to do with the position on the earth, and where the sun is. But it does make me wonder if June 21st is the longest day here as well? Or whether that's also affected by the sun?
