Excuse me,

but could we postpone Easter?

Last year my bike and I went to Paderborn and did some sightseeing and cycling there and in the area – and ended it by watching the season opener of the Paderborn Untouchables.

This year baseball season doesn’t start til the first weekend of April. So I have a four day weekend with nothing to do. I’m saving up for my Bildungsurlaub, going away for the long weekends in May as well as a four or five day weekend in June, my October holiday and also my extended end of the year trip so, I won’t be spending much money for hotels this weekend other than possibly one night in either Frankfurt or Cologne.

Not to mention the fact that the weather is going to be atrocious - which rules out cycling and other outdoor activities.


For those that don’t know, Good Friday is a public holiday here and we also have Easter Monday off (but I have no idea why). So everything is closed on Friday, open on Saturday and closed on both Sunday and Monday. Not even the castles I haven’t visited will be open (they don’t open til April).

However, if we could move Easter back to the first weekend of April, I’d be able to attend a few baseball games to occupy my time rather being bored into a coma. So, if it’s not too much of an inconvenience, could we do so?

Thank you for your anticipated cooperation.
