Here in southern Germany, near the Black Forest mountain range, people usually go out for a walk, especially by nice weather. Today was packed, couples on every path.

Nice to see a picture of Schloss Ortenberg here...

[–] morgunkorn@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 11 months ago

Haha very well done, that's absolutely correct ^^

[–] rab@lemmy.ca 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That's cuz everything is closed on Sunday

[–] morgunkorn@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 11 months ago

yeah, that's very true, even Saturday afternoon they think it's okay to close at 4, you can take a day off if you want to go shopping!

Here in Spain most shops and services are closed, so it's definitely family time.

Some people might go to church too, but that's mostly older people

Same for Norway. Going on walks seems more popular on sundays.

And brunch or coffee shops.

[–] Blaze 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Interesting, are brunch really a common trend? In some places I think it's mostly for a small subset of people (young couples without kids), and might not last that long

I have 2 kids and still go, just earlier than the ones without kids 😅

Realistically it's more like fancy breakfast, but there's lots of young families out at 9am on a Sunday

This song pretty much sums up Sundays in England https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2P7J-860eI
