A father and son fishing trip on Anzac Day afternoon in Nightcliff. Not a bad way to spend the public holiday. Anzac Day celebrates the day that the Anzac (Australian and New Zealand Army Corps) troops landed at Gallipoli in WWI. There is a dawn service to remember the Anzacs, and a day off - a bit like Memorial Day in the US, only with more focus on the rememberance part and less focus on the barbecue part. I managed to squeeze in a much needed day off from work. I went for a long bike ride, took some photos along the coast, and went to a friend's place for a barbecue. Very invigorating.
