Holidays 2021-04-23 (b)
Holidays today are about taking risks/chances, the Spanish language, and laboratories: National Picnic Day Quark Day Saint George's Day AKA Lover's Day Spanish Language Day Take a Chance Day World Laboratories Day On this date in 1616 Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra died, which is why Spanish Language Day is celebrated on this date. Saint George, who died on this date in 303 AD, has his day celebrated similar to St Valentine's Day in parts of Spain, which gave rise to Lover's Day. In 1994 the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory announced the discovery of the top quark, inspiring Quark Day. It's also a day to celebrate our laboratories. Sieuwert Otterloo on Unsplash
