Christmas in Australia and Europe
Posted by Emily on December 31, 2011
In Australia different people celebrate Christmas differently. Some celebrate Christmas lots and some don’t at all. Some people open their presents on Christmas Eve, some people open them on Christmas Day and some people like our neighbours open theirs in January. It’s because people in Australia come from all different places around the world.
We open our presents on Christmas morning and we always have a special Christmas lunch but it’s not always the same, but we always have pudding with custard. One of the best bits about the pudding is that we pour the brandy over it and set fire to it.
When we were overseas we saw lots of people getting ready for Christmas. There were all the Christmas markets getting put up and Christmas decorations were being put up in towns. They were selling gingerbread Santa Clauses and advent calendars and on the street there were lots of people selling roasted chestnuts.
