The Penguinet

Good morning and Happy Palm Sunday.

Here are some Clips about traditions in English-speaking (well, one is Chinese, but it's Malaysia so that's OK) countries:

 The distribution of Pax Cakes in Herefordshire : the round shortbread biscuits are given out by the vicar after the Sunday service. They are stamped with the image of a lamb and a blessing of “Peace and Good Neighbourhood” is spoken with each gift. The dole is believed to go back to a fifteenth century bequest.

 I can’t resist this slide show of a Chinese mass in Penang, Malaysia on Palm Sunday 2013. (It’s a bit long.)
