Wow... How many countries have a "midnight sun"

[Dana]

I'm watching a show called The Wandering Golfer. He's in Ireland and he was saying it was 10pm and it still happened to be light out. I find the whole thing interesting and think it would be pretty cool to experience. I know Alaska here in the USA has six months of sun and six months of night...

it has been said that in order to take up golf, you need to go to your toilet, take a week's worth of wages in cash and flush it down the loo.

If that doesn't bother you, you're ready to take up golf!! :24:

In South Africa, our Southern cities (Cape Town and surrounds) have sunlight until around 10pm in summer time. Higher North (Johannesburg) the sun sets around 7:30pm in the summer.

Winter time, Johannesburg gets dark around 5:30pm. I'm not sure about Cape Town (I've never been there in winter).
