Christmas is definitely in the air here in Melbourne! More specifically, a summer Christmas as some call it, but what exactly is so summery about the cities' decorations? It just seems odd to me to be looking at beautiful window displays of snow flakes falling and kids caroling, bundled up in scarves and jumpers. Something makes it hard for me to connect that while Christmas is traditionally known as a winter celebration, we are clearly enjoying it at the cusp of summer here in Australia.
So weird! No, Starbucks, I do not feel like a "cozy winter warmer" drink when it's tank top and shorts weather outside. And what's with your snowy landscape display amongst the heat wave that's about to hit??
