Day 60 - Leap Year

Pin It

Happening once very four years for astronomical reasons, the leap year is the one which sends attached but unmarried men into a panic. It is the day on which it is said women can go against tradition and propose marriage to their man themselves! But did you know that our Gregorian calendar in which we have an extra day in February actually stems from the Julian calendar which was developed by Julius Caesar himself in 46BC? The man was an all-round genius and legend!
