"Tweede Nuwe Jaar" 2nd New Year


This is a street parade that happens on 2nd Jan every year in Cape Town. It is said to be on the 2nd because the Cape Malay people were slaves in centuries gone by, and made to work on the 1st, so they celebrated New Year's Day on the 2nd with dancing and singing and bright costumes.
