The amazing eclipse of 2017

Today was when the big eclipse happened. An eclipse is when the sky becomes dark because the moon blocks the sun. It was so big that school let out because of it.We made it an event with a family party at home.We wanted to go somewhere but there was traffic so we decided to stay home. We had food that was eclipse related like Sun Chips and Moon Pies. My Grandbobby came to join in on the fun. We needed to wear glasses to watch it so we won't be blind. The totality part where you can see the eclipse without your glasses lasted for only about 1 minute but it was amazing. When I looked at it it s seemed like I was in heaven. Around me everything changed and it became dark-it wasn't as hot then and I heard crickets. That was a bucket list item for my life!  And I would like to thank my parents for giving me this magical moment.
