Poland Edition
Boxing Day leads today's complete edition for Poland.
Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
The Test cricket starts at the MCG. The Sydney to Hobart yacht race starts in the harbour. The sales start online at midnight. And every Australian who ate too much yesterday is on the couch watching cricket they would not normally watch because it is Boxing Day and that is what you do.
A continuation of the Christmas celebration, and the tradition is to visit family and friends, eat leftover bigos and pierogi, and recover from the excesses of Wigilia. In many Polish homes, this is the day for visiting extended family, and the hospitality rule applies: the guest must eat, and the host must serve. The day is a public holiday, and most businesses are closed.
