It was hilarious. There are a few goodies here too like Christmas in Aoteroa which has a barbecue beach theme. There is nothing like heading away on a beach holiday on Boxing Day with a chilly bin full of leftover ham and pavlova with freshly picked berries. My kids like Boxing Day best. To them it means camping, swimming, surfing, fishing and mountain biking.fabric epiphanieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08315635356310954354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5082175528389542071.post-430411077089267302012-12-29T19:47:22.885-08:002012-12-29T19:47:22.885-08:00Ahh pavlova and sunshine, yes this is Christmas! :...Ahh pavlova and sunshine, yes this is Christmas! :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5082175528389542071.post-56451017701246519322012-12-29T06:08:01.810-08:002012-12-29T06:08:01.810-08:00Yes, that is definitely what Christmas in Australi...Yes, that is definitely what Christmas in Australia is like!

My brother lives in Panama, and for him it is the same, no snow and warm weather! Hard to wrap my brain around the fact that it is summer in your area, and Christmas is a summer holiday!
