Feliz Pascoa / Happy Easter

As it turns out, Brazilians celebrate Easter, too, and on the same day. There are a few differences here, though, than the states. (No Cadbury mini eggs or Starbust jelly beans. Just sayin'.) Rather than fill baskets with treats, parents here give children large (practically head-sized) hollow chocolate eggs. There are public events, like parties in the mall, but no egg hunts in the park. And most exciting for Eri, the Easter Bunny / Coelhino da Pascoa visited her school's Easter party last week.

Puppet show, that was presumably Easter themed. (The
plot was difficult for me to follow.)
