We were a little unsure in the run up to Christmas as to how it might pan out. On the one hand it was refreshing to be in a place where the build up to the season is less frantic but on the other we were aware that we would miss friends and family. It was also strange to be in summer heat at a time we strongly associate with cold , it just didn't compute! We decided early on that the only way to approach things was to go for a completely alternative Christmas. And so it was. Unfortunately the planned BBQ on the beach on Christmas day didn't happen due to rain (yes it does rain here!) but otherwise we've had a fantastic week. A couple of days at the beach, a trip to a national park, the Sydney to Hobart yacht race, new year fireworks at the harbour, a couple of BBQ's by the pool and upteen skype calls with folks back home. Good times!
I've posted the Yacht race photos below:
