I have been to Australia many times (I live in the U.S.), but I've never been there during Christmas. Do you guys put lights on your houses with big, extravagant trees? Do you get "into the spirit" as much as we do?

Yeah we get into the spirit, alot people go all out with the lights and have loads of cars just passing by to see them, but of course not to the same degree as the U.S just a smaller scale. For me personally, i have a baked dinner, turkey or pork just my family, I put lights up outside, if i had the money id go all out, but i have enough to clearly see we get right into christmas. I put heaps of decorations up inside a big tree. But this yr i wont b home for xmas, im renting a houseboat. whoo hoo, cant wait for that.
So yeah to answer ur question, yes we do go all out for xmas. lol

To right mate! They drink beer, light up their houses and in general enjoy themselves no end. Im an Aussie but am presently domicled in Asia so I won't be there this Christmas.

Absolutely!!!!!!!
Its the same as what you guys do over there only its our summer....hence I always wonder why we bother putting up the snowmen....etc........lol.
We decorate our houses with lights...( our town actually has an anual light competition). We do all the trimming and festive things you guys do...........except its very very HOT!!!!!!

Don't know, but I suspect that skiing is not high on the list.
