Those who fear when 6/06/06 appeared on the calendar last year, this year will have a chance to smile on 7/07/07.

Believing that the 3-time appearance of number 7 will bring luck, many people have placed important events on the first Saturday of next month. The bride and groom also look for more happiness by registering their marriage on July 7, 2007.
