For all my Aussie readers – Happy Australia Day! Hope you’re all enjoying the best that “Straya” has to offer – meat on the barbie, good friends, good drinks and fun in the sun.
We’re off to a party at a friend’s apartment, which overlooks the Swan River and should have a pretty good view of the Skyworks show. I haven’t been to one since we left Perth, but I’m betting in hasn’t changed much – starting off with “Something in the Air tonight” building to a Gangajang crescendo!
I’m going to try my hand at a few fireworks photos – hopefully I’ll have something halfway decent to show you tomorrow.

Yes, Happy Straya Day to you three lovely ladies!
Belated Happy Oz Birthday back at ya
Happy Straya Day!
Looking foward to the fireworks photos. Mine are always terrible, would love a tutorial.
Happy OZ dayto you too. Here’s to having a discussion around the true meaning of the day in the near future!
Happy Belated Ozzie Day to you too! I like the fact that there is now a “conversation” about changing the date…. as the Australian Aborigines call it “Invasion Day”. I get so sad about the fact that we’re still so divided in so many ways.
Still, we had a lovely hot sunny Aussie day looking over the beach. We would have been ON the beach, but Boo was too ill.
Fes last blog post..We’re ba-ack….
Happy Straylia day from here too (belatedly) – nothing like seeing fireworks without having to find a possie in public that doesn’t have the added advantage of prickles, ants or a long walk back to the car!
