It was a quiet day at my parents' house even though it was a day off from school. Why it's called 'good' I could not understand as we were commemorating Christ's crucifixion; perhaps it's because he couldn't be resurrected unless he died and the Resurrection is the church's 'proof' of his divinity.
A couple of memories from my youth:
Good Friday is the only day of the year when Mass is not said.
We made the Stations of the Cross.
We tried to stay silent between noon and three, as this was the time when Christ was on the cross.
