Hi, I've got this paragraph:

La semana pasada fui a Alemania a ver a mi familia, Les amo mucho. Mi tío estaba en el hospital, mi abuelo tiene problemas cardiacos y mi abuela es ciega, pero aún así lo pasamos genial. Fuimos al zoológico de Frankfurt y había helado cada día. Fue muy triste para volver a Inglaterra.

And its meant to say:

Last Easter, I went to Germany to see my family, I love them a lot. My Uncle was in hospital, my granddad has heart problems and my grandma is blind, but we still had a great time. We went to Frankfurt zoo and had ice cream every day. It was sad to go back to England.

Your title should start and finish with ¿ and ? and not "this" and the qué is interrogative so needs a stress over the é. - kenwilliams, Apr 27, 2012

Huh? I don't think "está ciega" is right. That would mean she's only temporarily blind. - inkubzz, Apr 28, 2012
Sí, Inkubzz, aunque no sea algo temporal, se dice "está ciega". - Cordobesa, Apr 28, 2012

In your Spanish you are saying la semana pasada and in your English last easter, la semana pasada = last week and not last easter it should be La semana santa pasada but in context it is clear that you are referring to the easter just gone so I think it would be sufficient to say En semana santa fuí a alemania etc. But your title ¿Qué hiciste en semana santa? is asking a second person in familiar form what he/she did at easter.
