Resource: Finding events around the globe
Whatsonwhen is a free database of 1000s of events in various parts of the world. You
still have time to make the Vogalonga: thousands of traditional boats race across the Venetian lagoon; the Yasothon Rocket Festival: Thais launch huge home-made rockets in a misguided attempt to make it rain; Rock am Ring: Germany's biggest rock festival takes over the Nürburgring race track; and, in Memphis, the World Championship Barbecue-Cooking Contest: The Superbowl of Swine -- $60,000 in prize money and men dressed as porkers (see picture). <http://www.whatsonwhen.com/>
