Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year
Located in the Indian Ocean some 2,600 kilometers north-west of Perth, Christmas Island is the sole peak of an underwater mountain range to rise above the ocean's surface. The island was named by Captain William Mynors, who sailed the Royal Mary past it on Christmas Day 1643.
Over recent years, the Christmas Island Christmas stamp issue has taken a humorous approach to linking the festive theme to the island's name. This year artistic license prevails, as Santa aided by a Greater Frigatebird, a Green Turtle and Red Crabs creates sculptures from the island's granular sand. Joyfully wrapped gifts arrive by land and by air. This is the second in the series by Andrew Hopgood.
当北半球银装素裹冰天雪地之际,南半球正是烈日炎炎的盛夏。。。
