Sitting at my computer I started to wonder what everyone does at Easter time. I suppose some go to church, while others may spend time with their families. I also wonder what the weather is like where you are & if this is a factor on what activities take place. In my part of the world the weather is warm & sunny & allows for eating outside with a BBQ while the children play games with one another. Sometimes that adults join in the games with the children but soon have to retire as the young ones never seem to tire! Church plays an important role with Easter & as we nave many & varied denominations here the services are mainly all the same. We also have apublic holiday on Easter Monday which means that most business is closed with the exception of petrol stations etc & some amall shops. What happens where you live? Is it the same as here in South Australia?
The children spend time looking for chocolate Easter Eggs that the "Easter Bunny (Rabbit)" leaves around the house & garden for them to find. I am not sure how this tradition started but the children have a lot of fun in searching for the "eggs".
Our main meal during this time is mid-day on Easter Sunday & comprises of various meats, fish & vegetables. The a dessert is served which is accompanied by beer & wines. Generally we all eat far too much & all vow to diet for the next few weeks, but we genarally fail in our attempts!
Unfortunately as a lot of people take the Easter break as a time to travel into the country for a short holiday a lot of rad accidents happen due to careless driving or tiredness when travelling long distances as we do in Australia. I hope that you all have a safe Easter & that we can talk again soon. Please let me know what happens with your Easter.
