Happy Easter! (Maligayang Pasko ng Pagkabuhay!)

We celebrate Easter in the Philippines here's what we do in easter. 
In the Philippines, government offices, schools and most major establishments such as shopping malls are closed on Good Friday. Public transport is reduced. Holiday destinations such as beaches and hotels are busy with tourists and travellers.

Easter Sunday is a celebration of the resurrection of Christ. At  four o’clock in the morning, Filipinos do a salubong ceremony commemorating how the Virgin Mary met her son Jesus who has come back to life. Her image will be brought to the image of the Christ at the local church. Flower petals will be rained down on them. Everyone is happy that Jesus is alive again and that the world is back right. On Easter day, grocery stores re-open and you can buy food.

In New Zealand, Easter Monday is the last day of a four-day weekend, which includes Good Friday. Many people return from short trips out of town, while others relax at home. Many families take part in an Easter egg hunt and other Easter related activities. Chocolate eggs are especially popular to eat. Some churches hold special Easter Monday services.
