I'm a simple emigrant, and in Germany today it's Easter

Date of this holiday is determined by the lunar calendar: the first Sunday after the spring full moon. Good Friday comes before it, and Easter Monday after it. Easter traditions in Germany are similar to those in Russia. For example, dyeing eggs and egg tapping. By the way, in German stores you can buy dyed eggs year-round. Why, I don't know. Among the differences, for example, here for children the Easter Bunny hides eggs in the garden or around the house, and the child finds them and receives some prize at the end. Also here it's common to decorate trees in the garden or just near the house with plastic eggs; it looks funny, especially since at this time the trees are usually bare. This year I got a taste of Italian Easter: my friend brought me a huge chocolate egg, which is usually given to children. In children's eggs they place other candies. But for adults usually a small non-edible gift. I haven't opened mine yet; I'll tell later what the surprise was. And what interesting Easter customs do you know? #holidays
