Good Friday
Good Friday in Oz is traditionally a 'meat-free' day... good to have an excuse for prawns on the barbie I suppose! All the main shopping malls and supermarkets shut today... only the beach shops along with the fishmongers (of course!) and the bakeries (hot cross buns!). Jeff and I remember coming to Oz 20 years ago when all the shops shut on Saturday afternoons and Sundays... seems unbelievable now doesn't it?
That's what it's still like in Roma! 12pm shut down on Sat and ghost town on Sunday! It's certainly been a reminder of the 80s; oh them were the days! :-)
