In Slovakia Christmas dinner starts in the bathtub.
There is a unique Christmas tradition in Slovakia. People are letting the carp, which is meant for dinner, swim in the bathtub for a few days. This practice helps the carp cleanse its digestive system because it is a bottom feeder. So, during this time, people don’t take baths unless they want to share the tub with a fish.

#8 Haha, no wonder! I mean, the government can efford it . they are rich, very rich. Look, Luxembourg has a population of approx. 650000 people and they life in an area of around 1000 sq miles, Ok, they might need more than one Bus to serve all districts. On the other hand - I can imagine, most of the citizens will go by one of their own cars. Well, their own luxury cars. Sorry, this is just my personal prejudice, I know i'm wrong. But I like to listen to their very own national language, Luxembourgish. I do not understand the very most words, but it sounds very friendly and you feel "close" rather quickly.

Cinderella,
Just what do you think your taxes pay for? They pay for everything public, from schools to bridges and, guess what? Busses. They just charge you another fee to ride them, which is, guess what again? Taxation in disguise. You get taxed to use the thing you were already taxed to pay for. Which system is better?

#9 I always thought the lights were blue because of color blindness. Like they had enough colorblind people that blue is more apprant then green (which I think the world should actually adopt).
