Down here in Australia it is a different story. It is very cold this winter, and we've had a lot of rain, which is a good thing for a country that is so drought prone. Here it is the Winter Solstice and the shortest day of the year.
My home town in Melbourne, a city at the bottom of mainland Australia. The city itself is unique, with an amazing arts and cafe culture. With so many immigrants from all over the world there is so much going on and happening at any time. We are also sports mad, and it becomes part of you when you live here. Growing up in New Zealand, I would never have dreamed of following sport, or going to watch live sport! Within a couple of years of living here I became an avid watcher of many different sports, and a tragic Basketball fan.
The arts are also a vital part of life in Melbourne, and there is a massive street art culture. Qantas have a great article about it, click here to read it.
Have a great weekend everyone!
