Easter is celebrated in Madagascar with a long church service in
the morning followed by lunch with family and friends in the
afternoon. The monday after Easter, called Lundi de Paka, is
celebrated by going out into the countryside and picnicing,
partying, swimming, and playing sports all day long. Kind of like
an American "day in the park". People cook meat all day long,
drink, and enjoy being together. Easter is a time of family and
food in Madagascar. Although there are no Easter Bunnies, egg hunts
or baskets, there are plenty of beautiful new outfits, candy, and
toys for kids of all ages.
