BAGUIO CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Baguio Bureau) – It was an experience of a lifetime for many in the United States — a total solar eclipse seen from sea to shining sea.

But this rare phenomenon was also seen in Baguio City, the Philippines’ summer capital.  It shocked even the country’s scientists and weather experts as it was totally unexpected.

Just when the final moments of the eclipse came to an end in America, Baguio residents woke up this morning to this fantastic view of the moon casting its shadow over the sun.

It’s truly sunny side up!
