Sunday 16th December – Christmas carols

It is strange to hear and sign Christmas carols in mid summer. There was a special carols and readings at church this morning. I think Christmas carols are for cold weather…..

The whole Christmas thing of trees, lights, reindeer, red Santa’s and commercialism goes on here too. It looks even more inappropriate here than in northern climes.

One surprising thing…. Wellington city has a cross in lights on a tower on one of the higher hills above the city. Someone here still knows the meaning of Christmas.
