Daytime 8 hours and 23 minutes.

Winter solstice occured on 12/21, marking the shortest day of our year with just 8 hours and 39 minutes of daylight. The sun continues to shine this length for an additional three days, and thus it won’t be until Christmas Day that we finally begin the long climb back toward summer solstice, which is perhaps the best Christmas present anyone could ask for.

Sunrise Tomorrow: 7:37 AM
Sunset Tomorrow: 4:20 PM

My "day" today, will be about 5 days long!

Arrived this morning here in Argentina, Jan 9th, after leaving the USA Jan 8th via 10 hours of flights.

Still in Buenos Aires now, on the evening of Jan 9th - sat up all day finalising my 'Stamp News' column.

In a few hours, the 10 hours flying back to DC, then NYC, then SFO, arriving there late afternoon Jan 10.

We then board the 15 hours SFO-SYD flight Jan 10, that arrives Jan 12 due to the dateline.

So about 48 hours of planes and airports ahead of us "today'!

My day is different. I have two distinct sleeping periods in every 24 hours. I usually wake between 8am and 10am, go about my work at home etc, then sleep again for 2 to 6 hours anywhere between 12 noon and 7pm, again do household chores, shopping, washing, etc and go to sleep again between 1am and 2am.

Apparently, this is not so unusual, but generally just a misunderstood sleeping pattern

Best wishes, I off to bed

We had the coldest day in 4 years, here in Melbourne yesterday. The mercury didn't get above 11C. It was, in fact, the coldest May day for about 60 years. Around 30mm of rain fell in the area I live, just to make things more miserable. Thanks heavens for Global Warming, imagine how cold it might have been otherwise!

The solstice is fast approaching now and then the days will start to lengthen again.
