I still get baffled every time I think about the northern and southern hemisphere of the world. Having never left the southern hemisphere, you get accustomed to the seasons and their corresponding months of the year. I have always seen Christmas time as a hot time of the year but you get a long summer break. Now since I was in the US, I was absolutely stunned to find out that their summer break was at the opposite time of year to Australia. I think it would be quite annoying to have such a short Christmas break for people in the northern hemisphere, but I guess that's just the way the world turns doesn't it?
