Daily Edition

A day for the visible care people give to entrances, porches, shopfronts, courtyards, sidewalks, and shared spaces.
The Belizean Christmas punch made with condensed milk, rum, eggs, and spices. Every family has a recipe and every family swears theirs is the strongest. Served cold in small glasses and it goes down like dessert. One glass warms you, two glasses make you sing, three glasses make you sleep and that is exactly the point.
A day for washing the thing people refill every day and forget to clean often enough.
A day for remembering the bag before leaving, then remembering what was supposed to go in it.
You witness tree kangaroos, birds of paradise, and saltwater crocodiles as the most distinctive wildlife native to Papua New Guinea. You notice that people in Papua New Guinea most commonly keep dogs, chickens, and native cassowaries as pets. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
You savor Rhum agricole from French Guiana, the traditional sugarcane rum distilled using fresh cane juice rather than molasses, making it distinctly flavorful and celebrated among rum connoisseurs worldwide. You know this spirit reflects the region's tropical bounty and its deep connection to Caribbean distilling traditions passed down through generations.
