zuki (tsuki) would be "moon". つき
Mariko added this: 月
The former symbols are: tsu and ki (ki actually looks like a key). They are in "hiragana"... the alphabet used for spelling Japanese words (as opposed to the alphabet used for spelling FOREIGN words, which is different all together and more angular).
The second symbol that Mariko added 月 is "moon" 'tsuki' or 'zuki' in Kanji... the Chinese based (non-phonetic) symbols for big boys and girls. I know about two kanji.
Aaaaaanyhow...
Mariko took a few shots of the moon towards the end of the eclipse... then I took a few more of the landscape. It's moon overkill, but you're a good friend for continuing to put up with looking at this blog :D
Enjoy!




























It's amazing how quickly the eclipse ends. I forgot how fast it went. Eclipses in summer are good b/c you can stay outside for them and not worry about freezing like in winter or colder seasons... just mosquitos to worry about. Anyhow it was all over in less than an hour, I think (but I didn't have a watch out, so don't quote me on that).
