hey folks.......seems that something goes wrong here......... ;-)
In Germany, kids (!) get 6 weeks of holidays in summer !!!
Working people get a total of between 25 and 30 days of vacation for the whole year. Many families spent their holidays in summer between 2 and 3 weeks of duration.
As their are 16 "states" or "provinces" every state has a different start of the summer holidays in order to avoid traffic jams and to avoid overbooking of holiday resorts or hotels. So summer holidays in Germany are stretched between June and September, but every state with a max. of 6 weeks.
And - sorry - there are really no notable "work ethics" between eastern and western people (any more).
In the contrary, I strongly recommend to visit some eastern parts of Germany, the landscape and the villages are really beautiful !

and I recommend the wine region of Saale-Unstrut:
