Roy, having spent many tropical Christmases in my life including one in
Australia, let me say that nothing could be more inviting than going to the
beach for Christmas lunch. While there you can swim in a warm ocean! Play on
warm sand and check out all the bikini clad scenery!!
BTW Santa wears red shorts and a singlet.;-)

Ps no decorated palm trees. Instead you decorate pine etc., imported from
Canada. Where by the way it is snowy and cold. Less than perfect Christmas
weather!
