An Aussie Beach Christmas

11111

Despite cloudy weather, yesterday we shared a most delightful Aussie beach Christmas. In attendance were my mother, my brothers and their partners, and seven children ranging in age from 4 to 15.

The day was relaxing and low-key.

We opened presents then dined on king prawns, cold turkey, ham and salads. An hour at the beach was followed by dessert; a delicious hot chocolate and orange Christmas pudding doused with custard.

Later we played a male versus female game of Trivial Pursuit. Despite a valiant effort by the women and girls, the men won.

(By the way, someone should tell the creators of the latest version of Australian Trivial Pursuit that the Blue Mountains are west of Sydney, not east.)

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas too, wherever in the world you are.
