It's World Tourism Day Today!

WTD Sri LankaI figured we couldn't let the day breeze by without acknowledging World Tourism day. No, no! But what exactly does World Tourism day mean? Are you and all your friends planning extravagant vacations somewhere? Anyone just return from Tonga, Finland or Zambia? I'm not 100% sure, but I'm sure the folks at the World Tourism Organization have a clue. This year's theme is Tourism Enriches and without reading much one can already guess that a theme like that goes in both directions: it enriches the country and the tourist.

Anyways, happy World Tourism Day!
