They even have Christmas here!

I promised to try and keep you in the loop of how Kiwis celebrate Christmas... and I don't want to let you down. So here are some of the best moderations from a Christmas in the States that I can think of....
1. Instead of the song "let it snow" they sing "It'll never snow, It'll never snow"
2. barbeques... not chestnuts by the fire.... steaks on the grill
3. not Santa Clause most of the time... Father Christmas
4. the day after Christmas is not just a busy shopping day... it's a National holiday called Boxing Day (no Kiwi even knows why or what this day actually is)
5. and best of all..... Christmas is a day earlier here:)
