This really does highlight just how underwhelming Christmas is Australia. Here the local councils and shopping centers throw up some cheap plastic decorations and say yeah that'll do.

Totally. I'd love to see Xmas in Europe next year.

Yeah, it makes me sad that Australian decoration is so tacky and overdone.
