More People Are Heading Abroad For Warm Weather This Christmas
With Brits wrapping up for winter across the globe Aussies are lapping up the Sun as they prepare 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 go on a Australia holiday for Christmas.Some people love Christmas in the UK and would never think of going abroad however do you know the following…
Australia has temperature up to 36'c in December and you are pretty much guaranteed this will continue all through the month. Think gorgeous sandy beaches blue waters and getting the BBQ ready instead of turning on your oven and putting your heating on. 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. This market continues all through December every Thursday and is an event not to be missed. This market has it all, clothes, jewellery, antiques and many other things that will take you by surprise.
Christmas Carnival – To get you really in the Christmas spirit Alive Springs Christmas carnival provides plenty of xmas cheer! The carnival is very hectic but lots of fun with music, circus performers and magicians. If you’ve got children this night will be guaranteed success with market stalls offering arts and crafts and also the Universal Solar Garden. The carnival begins 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. Sydney is a busy place in December with it also hosting Sydney Festival which show the best local talent all across Australia and also the world.
