As the calendar brings us to the rare occurrence of Leap Day, Columbus is buzzing with excitement and special offers that come only once every four years. Before we delve into the array of deals waiting for you this February 29th, let’s take a moment to appreciate the reason behind this extra day.
Leap Day serves to align our calendar year with the Earth’s orbital period around the Sun, ensuring that seasonal and astronomical events occur at consistent times each year. Without this adjustment, we would gradually see a shift in seasons over the centuries.
