NZ's natural Christmas Tree
This is a picutre of one of the many Puhutukawa trees on the beach across the road from our house. They bloom red for Christmas. You can check out Wendy's blog for the Aussie ideas of Christmas. Here in New Zealand the attitude is a bit cheeky as exemplified in this Kiwi Christmas song:Christmas on the Beach
We don't want no holly or mistletoe.
We don't want no Christmas tree with artificial snow.
We don't want no snowman made of cotton wool.
We're not a bunch of fools
Christmas on the beach. Christmas on the beach.
Pack your picnic hamper up, we're gonna have a feast
Underneath the huge Pohutukawa tree.
Christmas on the beach
We don't want no reindeer.
We don't want no sleigh.
We just want some sunshine and a good old holiday.
We don't want to suffocate in our shoes and socks.
We don't want to sit around the box.
Christmas on the beach, Christmas on the beach.
Pack your picnic hamper up, we're gonna have a feast
Underneath the huge Pohutukawa tree.
Christmas on the beach
