Happy Australia Day my friend!! Enjoy!
Cheers mate! My wife and I are in the very early planning stages for a three to four week cruise in New Zealand and Australia in a couple of years.
We're doing Hawaii this year and Alaska next year.

You guys are spot on. I should have been more patriotic and grabbed a Coopers Pale Ale!

Yep, it's been a cracker of a day. Perfect weather and some catch up time with the family and a couple of mates. Snags and lamb chops on the barbie for tea, and a couple of cold amber fluids
Cheers to you too!

Happy Australia day!
Meanwhile, here in Texas, it is currently -12C (10F) with about 5 inches of ice (not snow) on the ground. We got off easy, compared to those folks further North.
Happy Australia Day! 113 degrees F there and I'm dealing with -23 degree wind chill here.

We have eaten our way across New Zealand and found the flavors unique, even beef, but good in all regards especially wild deer.
Nigel's first BBQ meat photo was indistinguishable, could it be Kangaroo or Koala? Dingo? I have eaten a canine in Korea.
It has been cold in WI but I have experienced worse. My batteries do not like this cold. Seasonal batteries live indoors this time of year, good for jumper duty.
