Dawn Service and Ray's March

This morning, I attended my first ANZAC day dawn service with Bashar. The crowed at the Melbourne shrine was incredible and there is something pretty special about standing next to my Turkish born, Australian mate listening to the service (I wish I had a Wallaby Jersey as well).

Afterwards, I had a power nap and went back to watch the march. There, I got to see my Uncle Ray march with the HMAS Sydney, as well as catch up with Chris. Ray was a bit concerned about his legs holding up for the full march, but then managed to walk the same distance again to get to the "nearest" pub, so all good :-)
