Leap Year


Seeing all the FB posts about Leap Year made me think of the Ethiopian calendar.

Did you know their calendar is not the same as ours? I can't remember the technical terms but one of us has a Julian calendar and one doesn't. Ethiopia has 13 months in their calendar. Of those 13 months, 12 of them have 30 days and one of them has 1 has 5 days.

If you have any interest in Ethiopia, it's an interesting fact to know. In addition to that random fact, here's another one: it's also not 2012 in Ethiopia. It's 8 years (I think) behind our calendar year in Ethiopia.

That's all.

Don't forget the give-away just a few posts down or click here.
