Astronomical MattersI had penchant to travel east.
The most interesting thing about this (as it were) is the day it I did it. I went east on the solstice, and when I stopped 400 miles later, I had somewhat shortened the about of my day.
The manner of conveyance doesn't really matter; I could have made the day's worth of trip on a horse (I'd considered it). I am fully confident that there is someone, somewhere, who went further eastward (in the northern hemisphere) than me that day, and that their daylight was shorter still, stretching the solstice unnatural.
I got it back upon return. And in six months, perhaps I will take a horse westward.
