This document compares Easter traditions in England and Catalonia. Some key differences are that in England they celebrate Easter eggs and egg hunting, as well as the Easter Bunny, while these traditions do not exist in Catalonia. Another difference is that in England people do spring cleaning before Easter for good luck, whereas in Catalonia cleaning on Good Friday is considered bad luck. However, some traditions are shared, such as Palm Sunday parades and celebrating Lent in the 40 days before Easter. The conclusion states that while the celebrations differ, the overall spirit of Easter remains the same in both cultures.Easter by Kety Rodr鱈guez. 5尊B 2011/12
