Sydney starts to get christmassy

Meant to post this a few weeks ago, so here it is and I will post another one about all my xmas antics soon. 

Christmas is fast approaching, and Sydney is starting to get a little bit christmassy, although with it being fairly warm it just doesn't feel like christmas at all.  It should be cold, wet and miserable!  However, the heat adds a different but nice factor to that christmas feeling.  However, one thing that Australia or at least Sydney does really badly is public decorations.  For example, down at darling harbour they have decided to decorate the area with 30 feet tall Santa's and a huge santa koala bear and a santa crab?! Yes a santa crab, what the hell is that i hear you say? Well, it's exactly what it says on the tin.  A crab, dressed as a santa, with a weird head too.  The also go for the stereotypical Koala dressed as Santa too.  It's all a bit strange to be honest.  Australia just doesn't do christmas like we do back in the UK.  But it's all great in it's own way.


 Merry Christmas!
