On black sturday, you'll find most people in the beach celebrating and having a feast. Some people go during early hours in the morning to save themselves a spot as it gets really crowded. After that day, the ocean gets so polluted which i really dislike on this holiday period. There's just no respect for mother nature! On sunday, i think this is considered as a rest day for most people anyway. As a non-Catholic, I enjoy this period with friends who appreciates easter.
As for me, here in the UK. I worked today (Good Friday), working a 16-hr night shift from saturday pm to sunday am and then back on monday on lates! When will i have a break???? Soon i hope!
Enjoy everybody!!!
