Australia? I wonder what Easter is like for those on the southern hemisphere? It feels strange to me because Easter is typically portrayed with European traditions pointing to new growth, things waking up from dormancy and baby animals, and for those in Australia it is the opposite, going into winter.
It's very hot and humid at least in the state I'm from, Western Australia. Over East Australia they get quite a bit of rain and floods tho.
The celebration of Easter is pretty much the same just with melted chocolates
cos of the weather. We don't focus TOO much on the spring-ish theme but we do use it with decorations, etc. Some trees are red or orange as well, not much green grass where I'm from
That's how it is for my family anyway, I'm sure people do it differently!
