Just wanted to wish everyone in Australia (and to everyone else if you fancy jumping on board and celebrating with us) a very happy Australia Day 2019.
Now I know this is a day that brings mixed emotions due to the nature of the celebrations, I brought this up in my Australia Day 2018 post if you would like to have a read. This one was in Sydney, I worked on the evening so I spent the day looking around the harbour.
But I don’t want to get into a debate or deeply analyse the date here, I just want to have a beer. So that I will.
I just want everyone to know that I hope you have a great January 26th whatever it means to you, and that a date shouldn’t define whether you choose to be happy or angry or whatever emotion it may bring. Life is too short to be told when to be happy or sad.
I am off to have a beer or ten as I am back to work tomorrow, so have a good morning/afternoon/evening depending on where you are blogging from. If you are in Australia what are you doing for the occasion? Let me know!
See you all soon,
Sam

Happy Australia Day to you too. I agree life is way too short. Blink and its over. So no point in being angry or sad. Lets just enjoy our country for what it is – wonderful, carefree…

Here in town in Northern California.
I heard years ago from a friend in Perth that Oz has “Texas Steak House” restaurants that are every bit as full of cliches as Outbacks are, LOL

Cool! I hope it was good. And really? I can imagine it being full of cliches, maybe if I get to Perth I will have a look for it 🙂
