庆祝日期：12月25日
Santa Claus? Yes, but more prone to wearing sunglasses and fur-trimmed red shorts.
圣诞老人？当然不可或缺，但是澳大利亚的圣诞老人更倾向于戴着太阳镜，穿着毛边红色短裤。
Food: A vast roast turkey is not so appealing in 40°C heat, but some still go for it. Others serve it cold. Prawns are also popular.
食物：在40摄氏度的高温天气里，巨大的烤火鸡可不那么受欢迎。不过还是有人会享用。其他人会做凉拌火鸡来庆祝节日。大虾也很受欢迎。
Notes: A summer Yuletide feels a bit back-to-front for us Northern Hemisphere chauvinists, but Christmas Day on Bondi Beach is something to behold. Otherwise, it is much like a British or American Christmas – gifts, food, family, TV, booze and arguments all make their appearances.
备注：夏季圣诞节跟我们北半球的圣诞节相比有点儿相反，但是去邦代海滩过圣诞还是很有看头。另外，跟英国或美国的圣诞节一样，澳大利亚圣诞节也有礼物、食物、家人、电视、痛饮和畅谈。
