EP5:' We're Getting out of the Country Girls '
Chateau d If:
I'm having trouble with this one due to the really weird solar arc for this location.
The sun is never gets to more than 70 deg of azimuth. The arrow I made above is at 85 degrees.
I have to put the boat closer to the docks to get 70 degrees.
From the SEMA plot you can see that the sum climbs up almost vertically with an azimuth of 70 degrees.
To get a time I will have to estimate the solar altitude. That is kind of fuzzy considering the wide angle shot.
I'd say it looks like 35 plus or minus 10 degrees.
That gives 8:41 am as most likely between 7:58 and 9:25 am.

Now for the Baseball field.
I can't tell how wierd this is to get the sun moving Northward as the morning turns to afternoon. Welcome to strange latitudes.
The solar azimuth at the time of the Godlewski RB is about 45 degrees. That happens at 11:30 am.

Fast Foward ,Paolo's approx 8:41 am
Godlewski's Roadblock 11:30 am
Chateau d If:
Puddin, the 8:41 estimate is for when the Paolo's are in the water looking up at the shipping crane. I don't know about boats going to Barro Colorado (I think that is what happening there)
