At 12:34 and 56 seconds on the 7th of August this year, the time and date is 12:34:56 07/08/09.

That is 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 in order in a freak of numbers.

For Americans that tend to write the month then the day, this same phenomenon happened around a month ago on the 8th July.

In 80 years time for those of us around, the same thing will happen in 2090 with the added zero on the end.

Just a bizarre combination of time and numbers.

    @caroline: I didn't see anything about this till this morning and thought it pretty cool. I recall one for 12:34 and 56 secs on 7/8/90 when I lived in the UK and I guess that one is even neater.

    @glennis: Sadly I read about it and didn't notice. But I was still taken by the numeric nicety of the pattern.

Welcome to Travel Wonders
I’m a keen traveller. In fact, over the last 25 years, I’ve travelled to every continent and over 80 countries. This blog is about the most memorable destinations – the places I regard as the travel wonders of the world. I’m also a keen photographer, and have taken nearly all the photos you’ll see. During my travels, I’ve met some incredible people, seen inspiring places, viewed extraordinary wildlife and scenery and had some amazing experiences, and I’m writing these stories not only to entertain but primarily to inspire others to discover their own travel wonders.
