The #FrenchEasterFlyingBells... Traditional belief holds that on #GoodFriday all the church bells in France miraculously ‘fly’ off to #TheVatican @the_vatican_official The bells carry all the grief of those mourning Jesus' crucifixion. These flying French bells then return to their steeples on #Easter morning just in time to ring for the celebration of Jesus' resurrection. The bells also bring back chocolate and decorated eggs just in time for children to collect when they wake up on Easter morning. In keeping with this tradition, French church bells do not ring from Good Friday to Easter morning. @myfrenchneighbor #myfrenchneighbor (at France) https://www.instagram.com/packerbackercat7/p/Bwdb2yoHBNW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6flu8e1t6wed
