Some call it Crimbo Limbo or Twixmas, in Norway it's known as Romjul – to us, it's that much-needed downtime between Christmas Day and the start of the new year.
It's when you momentarily hit the 'pause' button and take a breather after surviving the silly season – just!
If you're looking for a way to fill in those sleepy days from 26 December-1 January, Ballarat is the perfect destination to rest, relax and rejuvenate.
