Postcard #33: Easter from Czech
Dated: March 19, 2013
Postmarked: March 25, 2013 from Czech Republic
This is what was written on the postcard (it is absolutely hilarious):
"This card was painted by famous Czech artist Josef Lada. The most famous tradition for Easter is whipping girls on Easter Monday. Boys have to make a special whip from willow rools and they decorate them with colourful ribbons. The tradition says that a girl spanked by willow whip will be healthy and lively for the whole year. After the whipping, a girl should tie a ribbon to the boy's whip and give him a decorated egg."
