Our holiday in NZ was an opportunity to expose my children to Christmas festivities, a little like back home in the UK. 
In Tahiti we're not so Christmas oriented, it's a new thing that's catching on in Tahiti, but Rurutu not as much.
It's one of the things I miss...and even though NZ is southern hemisphere, so it's summer there too, it was reassuringly cold for us!
We managed to get to see snow (on Mt. Ruapehu, though we lost courage climbing up to touch it, too far, too cold!) and we did do a few Christmassy things... but no turkey (motel kitchens don't cut the mustard!) or Christmas pud (quite simply the kids don't like it!),
....but we also enjoyed our fill of summer fruits, with local cherries, strawberries and blueberries, what could be better!
