Regional/Cultural Day

Día del Lingala

La lengua que conecta Brazzaville con Kinshasa, con el río Congo, con la selva, con la música. El lingala es la lengua del soukous, de las canciones de amor, de las negociaciones en el mercado, de los anuncios de radio. Puedes viajar de Brazzaville a Bangui y ser entendido porque el lingala llegó allí primero.

Animals of Jersey Day

You watch grey seals and harbour seals basking on Jersey's coastal rocks alongside the island's population of seabirds including gannets and puffins. You notice that Jersey residents commonly keep dogs, cats, and rabbits as beloved household companions. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
