Christmas in Australia


Christmas in Australia is at the height of the Southern Hemisphere Summer - so its HOT!  Under such conditions Christmas is often spent at the beach.
------------------


Gloucester Cathedral Choir - In the Bleak Midwinter - not "bleak" at all but a warm song.
-------------------

 After friends and family my favourite thing about Christmas is the Carols, particularly from cold, snowy, slushy, places, like Britain.
--------

 
 Celtic Woman, Silent Night. Sung in Irish-Gaelic then in English.
 -----------

 Celtic Woman - Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring, composed by Johann Sebastian Bach between 1716 and 1723. It is often performed at Christmas.
--------------

Australia's Liberal-National Party Coalition Government have sent me this Christmas Card personally. Aren't they lovely? All creatures great and small :)

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
