- People get up early when the sun is rising on Easter Sunday morning. to see the sun dancing as it is believed to dance on the day. Another old custom is that people go around before Easter and gather eggs and boil them in the open on Easter Sunday evening these eggs are called "cludogs"
The eggs are boiled out in the fields where a fire is lighted and the eggs boiled on it. Each person gets one egg.
