AVOID FOREIGN HOLIDAY SURPRISES
CODE: T-SMA10 ORIGINATED: 8/31/01 UPDATED: 8/31/01

If you find yourself in Quebec on June 24, join the party. That's when the idiosyncratic Canadian province celebrates its 'national day'--and shops as well as government offices shut down as Quebecois take to the local parks to celebrate.

Such obscure holidays can trip up any traveler. Trains become less frequent, post offices and banks shut down, restaurants may or may not be open, and shops close. To protect yourself against holiday surprises, check the [ Worldwide Holiday & Festival Site ], a labor of love by a Brit living in Beirut who has listed legal holidays for more than 200 places around the world. And if your travel dates do fall on such a holiday, call or email a local (such as your hotel's concierge) to ask how you'll be inconvenienced. Once you know what to expect, you can relax and party with the locals--or plan a trip at a different time.
