Please see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/15th_parallel_north Take a look at the other countries lying on this line: QUOTE The15th parallel north is a circle of latitude that is 15 degrees north of the Earth's equatorial plane. It crosses Africa, Asia, the Indian Ocean, the Pacific Ocean, Central America, theCaribbean and the Atlantic Ocean. UNQUOTE I have long wondered if there is something magical about the angle of the sun, at this point of latitude. This is particularly relevant to the photography I dabble in. But then, it might just be my occasionally hyperactive Goan chauvinism that makes me see this. Que dites-vous, Eric?
