On April 2nd, Easter Monday, in Hungary, we went with the Jenkins and met 3 other senior missionary couples (the Bagozzis, the Bradshaws, and the Russells) in the small village of Hollókő. We found out that this is a very popular event. We spent over an hour in a line of cars on a narrow road leading to the village waiting for a parking place. We ended up parking a long ways from the bus that transported people up to the village.
The people of the village wear traditional Hungarian costumes and demonstrate traditional Hungarian Easter customs which include young men dumping buckets of cold water onto the women. Now they just sprinkle or spray cheap perfume on them. You can read more about it here:
