Christmas 2010
What a weird day it’s been. It’s certainly been different from Christmas in Scotland! I can’t say the day has really been all that unusual for a Sydney Saturday: got up, had breakfast, went for a swim, played Wii, had dinner, then went out for a coffee.
And that’s where we’re at. I got the coffee from a coffee shop on George Street at about 7pm: there weren’t many places that were closed between here and there. Market City - a fairly large shopping centre - was open, every restaurant I passed was open, chemists, electrical stores, the lot. At 7pm on Christmas day.
