Palindrome Week:Every date is the same forwards and backwards

Palindrome lovers, this calendar fun fact will have you saying "Yay!" and "Wow!"

This year, for ten days in the middle of May, every date written numerically is a palindrome. That means the date can be read the same forwards or backwards.

See for yourself:

5/10/15

5/11/15

5/12/15

5/13/15

5/14/15

5/15/15

5/16/15

5/17/15

5/18/15

5/19/15

It's been dubbed the unofficial "Palindrome Week," and fans of word and numbers games are celebrating on social media. Many of them are sharing their favorite palindromes or creating new ones.

In case you're wondering, the next Palindrome Week will be a year from June, when 6/10/16 comes up on the calendar.
