X-mas in July

X-mas in SA means sun, sea and braai. That is...the one in december, because the 'European' idea of X-mas (snow, slay rides, pine trees, cold outside while it's warm inside, etc...) has gotten some roots here as well. In june/july there are X-mas festivals being held in several places i.e. Tulbagh, because that is the time of year the weather in SA is most similar to the situation mentioned in the all the European and American X-mas songs and movies.
