Going to the equator

Today we went to the equator.  The top picture is of the painted line of the equator.  The bottom one is of a monument at the equator.  We also went to a museum and saw a lot of interesting experiments.  We saw a whirlpool on each hemisphere going in different directions.  We also saw how you could balance an egg on a nail, right on the equator because of the gravity and rotation of the earth going faster than usual.
