Yeah, I guess it's weird, it's usually about 100 degrees F during Christmas time, but that's normal for us, we have our 'summer vacation' over Christmas and New Year's time and then the school year starts again in February. It kinda makes sense to us, but I can see how it would be weird. But everything traditional about Christmas reflects winter time and snow, such as decorations and the portrayal of Christmas in the media etc. So I guess that's why I'd rather have a wintry Christmas. Not a stupid stinking hot one.

Still, Australia is probably the only country of the southern hemisphere that appeals to me. I can't really tell you why. I usually prefer the countries up north  |
Why's that? You like cooler weather? If so, you'd love the South Island of New Zealand
It kicks Australia's ass.
