The Bloggers With The Most To Say
The best things about a summer Christmas...
I haven't ever experienced a white Christmas, and to be honest, I can't imagine my Christmas any other way!
So, I thought I'd think of all of my favourite things about summer Christmas...
- The sun
- Spending an afternoon in the sun
- Wearing summer dresses!
- And rubber thongs (which all the non-Aussies will probably laugh at :)
- Eating the turkey cold
- With salad
- And having a pavlova with a whole bunch of berries
- And possibly some frisbee at the park
Yes! You can't go wrong... what do you all love?

I spent my early years in Colorado, so had a couple of white Christmases. My vote is summer Xmas all the way:
- barbecue is waaay better than roasts
- summer holidays during Xmas and New Years
- reading Christmas books at the bach in the sun
- fresh strawberries -

Sometime's we'd catch the ferry from Auckland to Waiheke Island and get sunburnt on the deck. Awesome. And sit out after a BBQ with a glass of wine ... all night. Magic.
Had our first Christmas in Europe - in Prague, 2006. Freezing.
It snowed on the 27th and we had one awesome, champagne-fueled post-Christmas snowball fight though. That was great. -

Hmmn.....all the same things as you really. Especially the pavlova part. Although buying a kiddies pool from Kmart to splash about in and keep cool is also fun. Also really cold beer and champers before midday (not together).
I have had a white christmas... when I lived in Ireland it snowed on Christmas day. It was the only day in the entire time we were there that it snowed and yep - we were out playing in it and making snowmen - even though there wasn't that much snow. It was lots of fun - and surprisingly not that cold. I would love to experience christmas in New York though. -

Oh I def agree. I've never had a white christmas and I don't really want one. I love that we have summer holidays then and my chrissie tradition is all my mates come round after the family do's for a bit of a drink and eat leftovers. Hanging out in the backyard doing that on a hot summer night is the best thing ever. I can't imagine that being as great if I was freezing my arse off!
