I am from Australia, have been living in North America for 10 years. I have also driven across the Equator twice - once in Ecuador[1] and recently in Gabon, West Africa[2]. It's funny to watch the guys standing on the Equator tricking tourists with a swirl of their wrist to supposedly demonstrate this effect. I thoroughly enjoy watching the stars change as I progress from the Northern Hemisphere to the Southern, and the water direction slowly change.
