Wow it’s Australia Day 2007.  Today is going to be a big day for me.  Not only is it the day we celebrate all the good reasons to be an Aussie — but my Brother-in-Law gets married today!!

So with that, I have to go get ready, and I’ll leave you with my post from last year :)

It’s Australia Day here in Oz, and the rest-of-the world wonder (with sometimes morbid fascination) on our ability to celebrate our National Holiday with a good old BBQ (and might I add I do a pretty good BBQ Brunch)

So What is Australia Day?  Well, a perfect Wiki definition is “Australia Day is Australia’s official national day, January 26. It commemorates the landing of the First Fleet in Sydney Cove on that day in 1788.”

Personally, I reckon the end of Sam Kekovich’s controversial commercial Buy Lamb for Australia Day says it nicely:  Whack on the BBQ, invite everyone over — if you can’t pronounce their name, just call them “mate” –; and celebrate living in the best bloody country on Earth.

PS:  If you are in Oz, remember to look up and smile for the satellite photo today!!
