Legend has it, Christmas in July started here because a bunch of Irish people were sat in a pub in the Blue Mountains reminiscing about what Christmas at home is like - crisp and cold - perfect weather for mulled wine, LOTS of stodgey food and being huddled around a fire... the landlord of the pub heard them and had a great idea - and so Christmas in July was invented! So this year, a few of us went to the Blue Mountains for Christmas as it should be! We hired a cute little house with lovely views!
It also had a fire - perfect for how cold it was up there!
Of course a real fire meant that the real men had to chop wood!!
Christmas Day was on the Saturday for us - the girls cooked,
the boys drank and played with fire and then we feasted!
A LOT of mulled wine and silliness...
It was a really nice chilled weekend of doing not a lot - just what we needed!
