Guy Fawkes Day commemorates the failure of Guy Fawkes' attempt to blow up Parliament. In England, it is celebrated with fireworks and a very big bonfire...(where burning an effigy of Guy Fawkes is optional)

Hey, this also happens to be the day of our wedding anniversary. Who knew we picked such an infamous holiday!
