It’s Christmas in Adelaide, and my German soul is longing for ice and snow, darkness and the glitter of the lights at real Christmas trees, the hot and spicy “Gluehwein”, just “Weihnachten”. But here I am — down under, in the summer heat of the Southern Hemisphere. True Aussies around me enjoy these Christmas temperatures in the low and mid-30s … be aware, we are talking shade in some remote corners of a weather station somewhere around here, i.e. the temperature I feel are much higher, and this is definitely true out in the sun.
