Easter Monday

Easter Monday (Ostermontag) is an annual public holiday in Germany that follows Easter Sunday, which remembers Jesus Christ's resurrection, according to Christian belief. It is observed with various local customs which includes early morning candle-lit parades, walks in the countryside and egg races. We celebrated the day with the Kriz, our extended family in Lahr. They just return from their vacation in Gran Canaria and the kids were just too happy for their late egg/gift hunting around the house.
