Perfect weather in Queensland yesterday meant hundreds of people went to the beach and the rivers for barbecues. We stayed home but Alan raised the flag on our flagpole. Then at lunchtime our next door neighbours rang around and invited everyone to an impromptu `street barbie’ and we all turned up. We had barbecued sausages, salads, enjoyed a few drinks and wished each other Happy Australia Day. At sunset we heard the cicadas and the kookaburras while we laughed, ate, drank and talked. Not a biting insect was seen or felt :) A wonderful summer evening with good friends and neighbours, a perfect end to Australia Day.

Perfect! We celebrated by cracking open a bottle by the sea at Rushcutters and playing boules 'til too dark to see.
