Australia Day wishes!

Australia Day commemorates the landing of first fleet of Australians at the beaches of Sydney, about 220 years ago.

I also think it reflects the laid-back, holiday lifestyle of true aussies. Life is a holiday!!

Sorry about the harsh mid-noon shadow - and yea, the image should've been there here on 26th Jan ;-)

Now, this photo is competing in Microsoft's Austraia Day Photo competition

I LOVE this photo! It should be made into one of those old fashioned travel posters they used to have at airports or in travel agencies before they had Expedia and Priceline. :)

Where did you find the thongs? I've been looking everywhere for them, but have only found some at Go-Lo that aren't as nice.

Hi Sin9e,
I bought from a Aussie Souvenir shop. There are some good quality ones if you try hard. :-)
