Mauritius Edition
World Careful Driver Day leads today's complete edition for Mauritius.
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 buses, taxis, rideshare cars, delivery vans, trucks, bicycles, scooters, and everyone trusting strangers on the road.
The second day of the new year is also a public holiday in Mauritius, and it is a day of rest, family gatherings, and the continuation of the new year celebration. The tradition is to visit the beach, and the beaches at Flic en Flac, Mont Choisy, and Pereybere are full of families enjoying the summer weather. The day is also used for visiting extended family that could not be seen on Jan 1, and the roads between towns are busy with traffic from morning until evening.
