Jour de la Sape

The Societe des Ambianceurs et des Personnes Elegantes. The dandies of Bacongo who would rather starve for a week than wear the wrong color on the wrong day. A sapeur walks down the avenue in a pink suit, Prada shoes, and sunglasses that cost three months' salary, and the whole neighborhood nods in respect. The color wars are real. The JMB camp faces off against the West camp, the Gucc camp debates the Dolce camp, and the Perrault shoe remains the holy grail. This is not fashion. This is philosophy with fabric.

Animals of Fiji Day

You observe the Fiji banded iguana, Pacific flying fox, and colorful parrotfish in the coral reefs surrounding the Fijian islands. You find that locals primarily keep pigs, chickens, and coconut crabs alongside dogs and cats. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
