I have to say, same! We will have to travel somewhere for a white Christmas.
Though, the concept of a white Christmas in Britain came from 1500s to 1800s during the Little Ice Age, back when the Thames river would freeze over. It's not really a thing that occurs very often nowadays, despite being in the Northern Hemisphere.
I'll be back tomorrow with more Christmas trivia!

Very Interesting read pertaining to how white Christmas derived In Britain. I had no Idea It dated that far back.
I'd have to travel overseas to experience It, which won't be anytime soon.

They also used to run entire fairs on the frozen river. I always thought that was fascinating.
I'd just have to drive North 13 hours XD

That's Insane, I would've loved to experience It.
If It's how I visualize It, how on earth (or should I say on "Ice") can you keep your footing on frozen river?

From the illustrations they have, it looks like you're just walking on thick snow with patches of ice. Therefore, with great skill - I imagine!

I would say the same, but I like the right to vote and to have a career.
