Yes, it only got dark in the last minute just before the sun was almost totally blocked. You had to be in the total eclipse path. That's why we drove 6 hours South to see it. It was worth the drive!
So the moon orbits the earth... and for the eclipse to happen, the moon passes directly between the sun and where you are on earth making a shadow on earth (the eclipse). So the moon was moving from the left of the sun if I remember correctly, but you cant see it because you'd be looking directly into the sun... then it slowly covers the sun and the eclipse happens... make sense?
It happen where I was at school but the sad news was you coudnlt see nothing all you see it was getting a little dark

Where was the moon before it went in front of the sun?
