During our first iceberg viewing, Jackson and Ted were trying out Tom's binoculars (Tom is Ted's step father and owner of the Westfalia - he and Ted's mom often take the Westfalia out for long journeys, they have parked up on a beach in Mexico for a month a couple of times). Tom warned us of the potential inadequacy of the binoculars, but we unzipped them from their 1970s leather pouch and squinted and blink until, at just the right angle, we could see the iceberg just a little bit closer. Ted quickly realized it was easier to use them as a monocular (pair of monoculars?) and closed one eye. Upon seeing this new discovery Jackson wanted to try, so here is his attempt as closing one eye ...
Not much luck.
We then had a long dinner discussion about - along with what we are grateful for today - who could wink with their right eye, their left eye, both or in Jackson's case neither. However, we did discover that he could raise an eyebrow, which he has frequently done to Ted and Belinda since.
That discussion then led to these dinner videos ...
Jaime.
Jackson.
Ted tried to research what percentage of the general population could wink with each, both or neither eye, but came up with nothing. So we decided to collect our own empirical data ... thus the survey above ... please help us out.

Must have missed the survey boat. This is so cute! I can wink with both eyes. 😀
