Easter Monday

Day after eggs

Easter Monday is the day after Easter Sunday, observed as a public holiday in many countries.

It marks the continuation of Easter celebrations in Christian tradition and secular culture alike.

In some places, it brings specific customs: egg rolling on the White House lawn in the United States, or *śmigus-dyngus* (water-throwing) in Poland.

The office is closed for Easter Monday.
