Coming from the northern hemisphere, I thought that Christmas in summer in my new home of New Zealand would be really bizarre and I wouldn't be able to get used to it. But instead it felt normal. Santa is usually depicted wearing his usual coat and hat, but instead of trousers, he wears shorts. Note the snowflake pattern on his summer shirt!
虽然我来自北半球，但是我觉得新住处新西兰的夏季圣诞非常神奇，我没法儿习惯，不过其实也很是正常的圣诞节。圣诞老人一般都穿传统的圣诞外套和圣诞帽，不过下半身穿的是短裤而不是长裤，还会穿带有雪花图案的夏装衬衫！

Most people will have a barbecue at home, and go to the beach on Christmas Day and Boxing Day. As it's summer holidays, many companies shut between Christmas and New Year so Christmas Eve is the start of many families' summer holidays, too, and as our schools follow the calendar year, kids are nicely relaxed as they're between school years.
大部分人会在家里做烤肉吃，还会在圣诞节当天和节礼日（圣诞节次日）去海滩。因为很多公司都会从圣诞节开始放暑假到新年，所以圣诞夜也相当于很多家庭暑假的开始，而且因为我们学校是遵循公历年的，所以孩子们可以在两个学年间好好放松一下。

Germany has a lot of amazing places to visit for Christmas. I lived one year in Regensburg in Bavaria, one of Europe's best kept medieval cities, and it has no less than three Christmas markets! If you're in Bavaria, you should also definitely check out the market in Nürnberg, one of the largest in Germany and bound to put you in a festive mood.
德国有很多超棒的地方，适合在圣诞节观光。我在巴伐利亚州的雷根斯堡住过一年，这是欧洲保存最完善的中世纪城市之一，而且这里有至少三个圣诞市场！如果你在巴伐利亚，那你也一定要到纽伦堡的市场去看看，这是德国最大的圣诞市场之一，一定能让你体验到圣诞节日气氛的。

But Germany is not the only country with amazing markets. Switzerland is also full of them, and having lived in Bern I can really recommend visiting the city for Christmas. Another good option is Stein am Rhein on the border with Germany (a two hour drive north into Germany itself will get you to more awesome towns, like Rottweil and Villingen-Schwenningen, as well as the Schwarzwald/Black Forest area with lots of quaint little towns), and the beautiful city of Luzern (Lucerne) on the Vierwaldstätter See (Lake Lucerne).
但是，不只德国有很棒的圣诞市场，瑞士也有很多。我在伯尔尼住过，所以我强烈推荐大家来这座圣诞之城。另一个推荐地点则是德国边境的宝石小镇（往北朝德国驾车两个小时，你会发现更多令人难忘的小镇，比如罗特维尔和菲林根-施文宁根，还有黑森林地区也有很多别致的小镇），还有琉森湖畔的卢塞恩城也很不错。

Outside of these two countries I'm sure there are loads of other places to see, too, but I'd like to especially mention the German speaking French region of Elsass, and in particular the town of Riquewihr.
我敢肯定除了德国和瑞士以外还有很多值得一看的地方，不过我想特别提一下法国德语区的阿尔萨斯，尤其是里克威尔小镇。
