It's hot. It's sticky. It must be Christmas in Australia!

For the Aussies reading this - what are your favorite things about Chrissy in Australia?

For everybody else: go on ask. You know you want to know what we crazy people do for a Christmas in the middle of summer. (well - we do our best to keep cool - that's mostly what we do <img src="/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> )

I live in NZ

Great! The more of us from Australia and New Zealand the better!

I never said I'm FROM New Zealand <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
I just said I live in New Zealand

Mind you, i suppose being born on New Zealand is meant to make me "from" New Zealand. But I'm from the same place everyone else is from...that includes Earth too

I wasn't there for Christmas but spent a lovely three weeks (we left the States on Feb. 6) in Australia and New Zealand. We spent several days in Sydney and then cruised on the Sapphire Princess from Sydney, Melbourne, Hobart, Fiordland, Dunedin, Christchurch, Wellington, and Auckland. We had a ball.
