Regional/Cultural Day
They are harvestmen. They gather in groups. They eat decaying matter. You see them on the walls.
Regional/Cultural Day
You find the spotted hyena, West African manatee, and saltwater crocodiles inhabiting Guinea-Bissau's mangrove swamps and savannas. You observe that local communities keep goats, chickens, and cattle as their primary domesticated animals. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
Regional/Cultural Day
You cycle past on a Dutch bike and reach for Stroopwafels and Gouda cheese, treats and dairy products that represent centuries of Dutch craftsmanship and global commerce. You recognize how these foods embody the precision, tradition, and trading spirit that built the Netherlands into a worldwide cultural force.
Regional/Cultural Day
A celebration of the artists who had one hit and then disappeared. "Come On Eileen" by Dexys Midnight Runners. "Mambo No. 5" by Lou Bega. "Macarena" by Los Del Rio. "Who Let the Dogs Out" by Baha Men. These songs are played at every wedding reception in America, and nobody knows any other song by these artists. This is the beauty of the one-hit wonder: perfection once is enough.
