Grenada Edition
World Careful Flame Day leads today's complete edition for Grenada.
Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
A day for cooking fires, candles, heaters, lamps, grills, ceremonies, workshops, and the respect every culture gives controlled fire.
Nine days before Christmas, Grenadians wake before dawn to walk the streets, sing carols, and drink cocoa tea. The tradition started with the Catholic novena, but the pre-dawn street parties are purely Grenadian. Every village has its own program.
You observe colorful reef fish, sea turtles, and tropical seabirds like frigatebirds and herons in the waters and skies around Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, and Saba. You find that dogs and cats dominate as pets, with some residents keeping parrots and other tropical birds. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
