National holiday. October 18, 1991, Azerbaijan restored its independence and chose its own path after decades within the Soviet Union. A day of pride, reflection, and the flag flying from every balcony.
A day for checking the remote, the toy, the flashlight, the clock, and the one drawer everyone opens first.
A day for the drawer that has three almost-right screws, old batteries, tape, string, and the answer to a small emergency.
You observe seabirds including frigatebirds and boobies nesting on Kiribati's atolls alongside sea turtles and tropical fish in surrounding waters.
