One of the fun things about being in Europe is to see how Easter is celebrated.
The photo is of an Easter Market in Vienna. All the wonderful Easter eggs for sale.
In the shops in Vienna and Bologna there are special Easter breads and treats. The chocolate baskets are quite amazing.
We did have delicious roasted milk-fed lamb for lunch in Bologna today. They use fresh rosemary.
Later this week we will head to Greece to experience Orthodox Easter, which is a week later than Catholic Easter this year.
But now we head on a night train to Berlin to participate in the after Easter sales.
Welcome to blogland, EU edition.
ReplyDeleteThis is an awesome photo- I've never seen anything like it. Are these blown? with chocolate inside? How did the bunnies lay so many beautiful eggs?
More importantly, HOW IS THE WEATHER? We want reports......
The weather has been ideal. We have been in continual sunshine and high between 68 and 72 degrees. It couldn't be better. Same forcast for Berlin this week.
ReplyDeleteThe eggs are actual egg shells empty of the egg stuff. They have ribbon on them to hang. Tons of variety, but each flat of eggs tend to be of same design.
