This is around the 21st of June when summer solstice is happening for the northern hemisphere.
I mean it is the day with the longest period of daytime.
Halloween! Not a big thing in the Netherlands, but I love the colours of autumn, pumpkin, and the scary movies.. So this is just the best time of the year 🙂
My favorite day of the year is opening day of Dungeness crab season. It signals the return of one of my favorite types of food. There is no specific day for it and sometimes we have years when the the opening day gets delayed to the beginning of the next year. It usually happens about a week or two before Thanksgiving. However when there are high levels of a specific algae it causes an acid in the crab that can cause neurological damage. Last year they also decided to start the season two weeks later to prevent whales from being entangled in the lines for the crab traps. I'm sure they'll do the same thing this year, so now the season should open around mid December.
