It’s Carnival Time!

Imagen
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil - Feb 18-22, 2012 Rio de Janeiro is ready to open its world-famous Carnival on Friday, to the delight of hundreds of thousands of tourists and celebrity visitors. Before the official Feb 18-22 celebrations, "blocos," or block parties that attract up to tens of thousands of revelers start sprouting up across the city.

Leap Year has been the traditional time that women can propose marriage. Interesting facts about leap years In many of today's cultures, it is okay for a woman to propose marriage to a man.
