One of the things I always notice when in El Norte this time of year is the longer length of the day — and today it’s at its longest. Light came through the curtains to wake me at 5:45 AM and the sun won’t dip behind Mt. Tamalpais and into the Pacific until 8:30 PM. The further north one goes, the longer this day lasts. Of course, the reverse is true in the winter. No wonder the Summer Solstice is such a big deal in the northern latitudes!
As much as I miss Oaxaca, this really has been a spectacular spring in the Bay Area — perfect for strolling along the San Francisco Embarcadero with a Oaxaca buddy.
The City By the Bay at her best!
So true ! Up here in Mississauga, Ontario sunrise is at 5:37, sunset at 9.03; daytime being some 40 minutes longer than S.F. Wishing you an enjoyable summer, Shannon !!
