Christmas in Australia is a unique and special time of year, just like in any other part of the world. Many Australians spend Christmas day at the beach or by the pool, enjoying the hot summer weather. Traditional Christmas foods include roasted meats like turkey or ham, along with traditional sides like roast vegetables and potatoes. There are also plenty of desserts to enjoy, like Christmas pudding and fruitcake. And of course, no Christmas meal is complete without a glass of eggnog!
