For some people living away from home, their national day is a chance to go crazily patriotic, perhaps to make up for the lack of compatriots with whom to discuss favourite nation-related topics or lack of favourite national foodstuffs etcetera. For others, the day is practically over when they realise its significance and then they perhaps think, with a sigh, that they are so far from the land that they love that there’s no real connection. Hmm, I guess I fit somewhere in between. And really, I like any excuse to make yummy food and wave a flag.
Happy Australia Day everybody!
Georgia all ready for kindergarten (she took ANZAC biscuits for the class)
