Mitad del Mundo

Equator in Ecuador.

Close to the capital of Ecuador lays the equator, a line that devides the Northern hemisphere from the Southern.

Due to the gravitational situation on the equator it is possible to balance an egg on a pin. Everybody who succeeds in doing so receives a 'you-have-balanced-an-egg-on-a-pin-on-the-equator'-certificate.
