What's All The Fuss About?

Christmas in Melbourne's quite different from elsewhere...not only is the Southern Hemisphere screwin up the common notion that a beautiful Christmas only exists with snow (it's summer now)...Melburnians also like the idea of queuin up for some lame ass exhibition right smack in the middle of the city...

The smart ones with the money on not queuin can easily avoid the ocean of people and walk along the cordoned off area and take little peeks...
