In Melbourne mid winter, when it’s supposed to be cold ( I still cant get over mid ‘winter’ being a very nice sunny 16°!) many people not native to Australia celebrate Christmas in July. Many bars and restaurants run Christmas specials on the 25th July, and since we arrived in Melbourne, the great group of friends we have, always made a point of celebrating it.
This year started off with some ice skating at Melbourne Icehouse, followed on by Christmas lunch at the Metropolitan hotel in North Melbourne, then back to ours for more.
Cue a really devious version of Secret Santa, cocktails, and yet more food, and, well... I’m knackered.
Great peeps, great day, some daft photos below. And with the next Christmas six months away, it really does feel like Christmas gets closer every year : )
