Dec 23: Celebrating Christmas/Holiday Season In Various Places (Global)
Image

When you put your mouse over each window it expands and if you click on the window it'll do a search for what the window represents. You need to go to your countries Google home page to do it though. There are 17 of them.

This will stay up through Christmas.
