Egg rolling is an art! It requires concentration, determination and skill. That is why only a few people know about it and most of those people seem to be from Northern Ireland. Thus when ever I mention egg rolling people look at me as if i am insane. But it is an Easter tradition and a very fun one.
Easter Egg Rolling Step 1: Boil eggs
Step 2: Let eggs cool and get your paints and markers ready
Step 3: Paint eggs
Step 4: Climb a hill, mountain, great wall.....
Step 5: Roll eggs
This year we decided to climb the Great Wall at Mutianyu and roll our eggs. As per usual it was cloudy, cold and very grey but this seems to be the normal conditions at Easter. There was many a year we sat at the top of the mountain in Rostrevor, freezing and wet, rolling eggs and eating lots of chocolate. We hiked along the wall for a while trying to find the perfect spot. Alas we reached a bit that didn't curve too much and didn't have any steps. We got our eggs ready, stood in a line and rolled them down the Great Wall. People must have thought we were crazy!
