Easter in Triest

During Easter, in Triest, we have some traditions. The first thing we do is to buy chocolate eggs and open them on Easter Day. Before this we can't open them because we are in Lent, a period of forty days before Easter, in which we should practise fasting and other forms of penance, prayers, and charity. It is a religious period of preparation to celebrate Easter which represents the resurrection of Christ. One of our traditions consists on hiding the eggs in our house's garden so that the children try to find them. After this,all the family usually gather for a lunch where we usually eat lamb roast.
