Easter Monday in Poland

In Poland Easter Monday is known as ŚMIGUS DYNGUS or Wet Monday. On this day boys pour water on girls. In the past they used even buckets of water, nowadays they use water guns or whatever available. In the past it was a shame for a girl if she wasn't wet as it meant she wouldn't get married that year. The custom has got pagan roots but at present people do it for fun. However, this year is quite unique. due to heavy snwofall, we rather saw palying with snow than pouring water.
