I've grown up in new England with white christmasses *don't know if that is a word* I've always wondered what it would be like to celebrate christmas in a tropical climate. It probably wouldn't feel like christmas to me. Thanks for entering my contest. Sorry it's taking me so long to judge, but I have a lot of entries to read, and I am swamped with school work.
