Fancy A Warm Christmas - Australia Could Be The Answer!
With all us Brits wrapping up for the onslaught of England's December weather
, Aussies are bathing in the sun getting ready for their summer! So it's not surprising many people are thinking of ditching their woolly coats and beanies and getting there swim gear on to spend Christmas day on the beach. For Christmas purist the thought of a hot Christmas is out of the question however you might be tempted when you know a little more...Australia guarantees sunshine and average temperatures of 36'C in Alice springs, 22'C in Holbart and 25'C in Darwin. Think beautiful golden beaches and clear waters and instead on warming your stove auger you will be setting up your BBQ. It's not all about sunshine there are loads of activities happening in Australia throughout December to make your Christmas very special, here are some of the events I found special:
Beach Night Markets. This is not your ordinary market, with over 75 stalls set on the beach at St Kilda you can spend all night wondering through the exceptionally wide variety of stalls. It happens every Thursday night throughout December and really cannot be missed. Whether you are after clothes, jewellery or just a bit nose there really is something for everyone and one of the best atmospheres you won't forget in hurry.
Christmas Carnival. To get you really in the Christmas spirit Alive Springs Christmas carnival provides plenty of xmas cheer! The carnival is very varied with live entertainment lining the street, magicians and circus performers. If you've got children this night will be guaranteed success with market stalls offering arts and crafts and also the Universal Solar Garden. This event happens on the 11th of December.
Sydney New Year Fireworks. Famous throughout the world and something that cannot be missed! Sydney bridge and opera house as the backdrop to this event you won't see a more special, beautiful fireworks show. This is the largest display in the world and shown to millions of TV views however seeing the fireworks display in real life is truly breathtaking and Sydney is undoubtedly the best city to see in 2010. As well as the New Year fireworks shows Sydney also has the Sydney Festival which highlights the hottest talent from Australia and includes music, dance, theatre and visual arts.
Australia really does come to life during December and if you want a Christmas to remember away from the cold of the UK an Australia holiday is the only choice.
