Easter Egg Hunt 2010

By this time, I suppose the kids (well, the bigger ones) have the idea that the Holy Week somehow starts with Palm Sunday and ends on the Easter Sunday.

Growing up, it actually took me a while to realize that! There was even a time when I thought Ash Wednesday was in the middle of the Holy Week!


But did you know there's a link between Palm Sunday and Ash Wednesday? This year's leftover palm fronds will be kept and burned next year. The ash from the burning will be used for next year's Ash Wednesday.

Crucifixion in Pampanga

At least that's what the picture below looks like. This was taken when I had my one-week vacation which stretched to two weeks because of foot accident.

That's Danny the Puppy being inspected for some insects that have been crawling on his skin. They're not ticks which simply latch on to the skin. I don't know what they are but they are fast crawlers (faster than ants) and don't jump.
