It is strange preparing for Christmas in hot weather. The last few years have always been the same but knowing that I won't be going back to the cold does make it feel different. On our last weekend together in São Paulo, we went to a lights and music show in the park. It was really fun and very pretty. Lovely to hear some English Christmas songs, as well as of course, Feliz Navidad!
Christmas concerts in school have amused me for the last few years. Tinsel and Santa hats are just not practical in boiling weather! At the end of term we had a Christmas dinner in one of our apartments, each cooking a separate part of the meal in our tiny ovens!
The New Year's Eve tradition here is to wear white. The shops are filled with white dresses! Very different from the UK. It will be interesting to see everyone dressed up. Mine is in the wardrobe ready.....
