In pictures: Your equator memories
The real line?

From Brian Sinfield, St Albans, UK:

"We were in Ecuador in 2005 and found the official monument of the equator in Quito (pic left).

It is just a couple of hundred yards from the REAL equator which is in a family's farm (pic right).

Here I am trying to balance an egg on its end, which is easier when exactly on the line."
