Today is ANZAC Day here. We can’t believe we had never heard of it. It
means Australia New Zealand Army Corps and is basically like our
rememberance day but a bit more upbeat.

We didn’t make the dawn service (at 5am) but did see some of the march
through town which went on for 4 hours! It was really good and there
was a great atmosphere. For some reason, after the march most pubs
have a game of ‘Two Up’ for a few hours where you can bet on the
outcome of two coins thrown into the air amongst a very rowdy crowd.

Tonight Matt & Mel invited us along to their friend’s party where we
have had our 1st Aussie barbie on a balcony over looking the city.
One guy arrived having just lost £100 at the pub playing two up. Eek!
