Australia Day
|
British prisoners were not very happy when they arrived in Australia on January 26, 1788 - they had to build a new colony! But this date marked the start of the modern nation and is now honoured as Australia Day. This public holiday falls during the hot Australian summer. | An Australian surfer |
