A day for baskets, backpacks, totes, sacks, satchels, lunch bags, and everything people carry through the work of a day.
The party bus. Open air, painted like a rainbow, loud enough to shake fillings, and always full of people who started drinking at 2pm and will not stop until 4am. The chiva is how Colombians celebrate everything: birthdays, farewells, Tuesday.
A day for the entrance that tells visitors someone cares about this place.
A practical celebration of the list that saves the day, even when one item is remembered only after reaching the door.
You encounter the endangered Djibouti francolin and the Somali wild ass in Djibouti's arid landscapes. You most commonly see domestic cats, goats, and camels kept by residents in this Horn of Africa nation. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
You celebrate the local rum production of Saint Martin, where distilleries like Rhum Clement (though Martinique-based, widely available here) define Caribbean spirits culture. You recognize how rum represents the island's colonial history and its transformation into a modern economy built on tourism and trade.
