Leap Day, February 29 is here once again. As we do not get to experience this day every year, it evokes curiosity to the history, facts, tradition and tales associated with this day. Ancient Egyptians actually discovered that the solar year and the calendar year does not match and because of this, It takes the earth longer than a year to travel around the sun, 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 46 seconds. The hours which get accumulated over the centuries occasionally add an extra day to the calendar. It was the Romans who first designated February 29 as a leap day.
