Greek Easter Customs
Greece has many customs. The
ones I like most of all are those associated with Easter. On Holy Saturday
night, at 12 o'clock everyone goes to the neighbourhood's church. They
listen to the Resurrection mass and they throw little dynamites to have
fun. At 1:30 everybody goes home. During Easter Sunday, the lamb is being
spit and then it is eaten. It is a wonderful day.

Easter eggs
Easter is coming, so I am thinking
about easter eggs. I like this custom and I' m looking forward to cracking
all the other red eggs, because my grandma has given me an unbreakable
wooden red egg from her sewing box and nobody can understand it's not real.
In previous times, traditionally easter eggs were painted red, but nowadays
the eggs are painted in different colors and they are nicer and more impressive.
