May Day! May Day!

May Day is, of course, the main commie holiday. It's a big one here, especially since it's the day after Liberation/Reunification Day.


There are Party posters everywhere.

Many people take advantage of the four-day weekend to go back
to their home village, so even in the tourist areas many shops are closed
and the streets are practically deserted.

Those who stay in town get some much needed relaxation.
(These people can sleep anywhere.)

Or they head to the ice cream parlor. (Kem means ice cream,
a corruption of the French creme.) Of course, you throw your trash
on the sidewalk. After all, someone's there to sweep it up,
and they need the job. (To each according to his needs.)
