Changing the pace with this midweek post.
Bringing you three fun facts 😊
~ xxx ~
October 7 is National Bathtub Day, a day that encourages you to draw a luxurious bath with bubbles, bath bombs, scented oils and a rubber duck to soak away your worries.
Tonight, October 7, 2026, the Moon is in its Waning Crescent phase with 12% illumination, marking the final stage before the next New Moon and the start of a new lunar cycle.
Every October, Earth passes through debris from Halley’s Comet, creating the Orionid meteor shower. Peaking around October 20–22, around 20 meteors per hour are visible under dark skies.
Have a happy day
All the best Jan

National Bathtub Day? Who knew!! How fun though!!
I always learn something new, when I read your blog, and today was no exception. Peace!
I love that it's bathtub day, even if I don't have a bathtube. Smile. But I can pretend and dream I do. :)
Enjoy your October.
Thanks, Jan for these interesting facts and I agree on the cup of tea as always being perfect!

Boa tarde Jan. A cultura brasileira é riquíssima. Confesso que nunca tive a experiência de ver uma chuva de meteoritos. Uma excelente tarde de quinta-feira para todos os seus familiares no Reino Unido e um grande abraço do seu amigo carioca.

I liked it. Thanks, Jan. I’m more of a coffee person. And even more so if it’s with friends.
Best regards.

Good afternoon, Jan. Brazilian culture is incredibly rich. I confess I’ve never experienced a meteor shower. Wishing all your family members in the UK a wonderful Thursday afternoon, and sending a big hug from your friend from Rio
The meteor shower looks beautiful. I have not had a bath in years!
I had no idea there was a National Bathtub Day! 🛁😂 I'll definitely keep an eye out for the meteor shower later this month. And I agree, any day is a good day for a nice cup of tea! ☕😊... eh no: COFFEE
Wonderful information! Cute ducky!
Who invents "National (Something) Day"? Is there a calendar with all these days logged in in advance?
God bless.
Hello,
Love the cute duckie. I would love to see a Meteor shower.
Have a great day!

How cool to see the meteor shower. We only have a shower so can't even take a bath.!!
I've been fortunate to see a huge meteor shower in 1998 when I lived in N. Idaho. It was spectacular. I wish I had a bathtub.
Fun facts indeed. You can't beat sharing a cuppa with a friend.
A cuppa makes everything better especially shared with friends
Fun read, thanks Jan and all the best for the day and weekend, Denise :)
Neat facts for sure, it would be neat to get a picture of the meteor shower :)
Me ha encantado esta nueva sección. Besos.
