Australia day

Saffron Craig - Tuesday, January 26, 2010

I woke up with a head for figures and putting them into spread sheets. Finishing them off in the evening. I am grateful that the majority of my time is spent creating, not book keeping!

We caught the ferry to the city to watch the live acts. The harbour was alive with shouts of “Aussie Aussie Aussie“ and us on the ferry replying with “Oi Oi Oi.” Well at least I did - a lot of people were a bit miffed.

We wove up Macquarie Street through all these fantastic vintage cars on display—and the most adorable little caravans—to see the Koala Brothers and Bananas in Pajamas in Hyde Park. I was hard pressed to find one that I liked the best but a line of 60’s Minis had me very excited.

I do love Australia Day. I love how patriotic people are and so friendly and enthusiastic. I also loved getting soaked in the fountain as I am not too keen on being too hot.
