Field Report : Palm Trees & Pits


DAY 5.

Anzac Day. Australia New Zealand Army Core. Tried to  wake for the dawn service but the crew were all way to comfy and woulda takin ages to get em all in the RV. Bailed it and opted for the mid morning one. Rum straight from the bottle for break. Sips to remember the fallen diggers of the World Wars and all other wars to present. Sk8ed down the beach paths to Burliegh and the joints packed. Got down there just in time for the parade and service. Anzac Day has to be one of three of my favourite days. Its a great time to reflect on the fallen brethren that fought for our freedom in life, here in Australia.

Spent the afternoon down the beach with a tonne of beers and all was merry. How could it not be. The suns out. The waters warm. Theres a heap of smiles join round. Perfect way to celebrate freedom. Need less to say, the rest of the day was a little bit of a a blur but one things for sure, its been a great one. I feel privileged to be able to share such a special day for Australians with me wantoks from Canada.
