Norfolk Island Christmas Flag


The Norfolk Island Christmas flag is decorated with a traditional Christmas theme.  A star is on top, there are multicolored presents underneath and multicoloured lights.  Norfolk island is in the Southern Hemisphere and is a good place for Christmas in July, because it is wintertime in this little island.

When most people hear the word Norfolk they think of Norfolk, Virginia.  But Norfolk, Australia is a completely different place.  Yet,Yankee and Aussie Norfolks are named after the original Norfolk in England in East Anglia.  But Norfolk, Australia is closer to the equator, thus it's climate is more like Daytona Beach in Florida at 29ยบ latitude.  Also, Norfolk Island is much smaller than Norfolk, Virginia.  In fact, about you could fit about nine Aussie Norfolks in one Virginia Norfolk.



Thing is, Australia does indeed have an island called Christmas Island, but its Norfolk's flag makes a better Christmas flag.
