So many ways to spend Australia Day...Beach, BBQ, Party...Beach BBQ Party...okay so not so many ways...Mine was gonna be spent at the Vietnam Veterans Australia Day celebration.
Was dreading spending the day with my grandparents at their friends celebration but turned out better then i expected.
Early start to the morning made our way to the restaurant then to their house. Slow start to the event spent most of the first hour waiting to go home. But as things got going i was starting to enjoy myself...
- Did my waiter thing and served some of my Om Noi's Vietnamese coleslaw to all the guest - was a big hit amongst the veterans.
- Sat on the verandah in the shade and watched Tony cook the Lamb on the Barbie.
- Offered my service to carve the lamb...Leo was a little hesitant at first but Tony gave some encouragment.
- Using my awesome ninja/asian skills i carved up that lamb.
- During which my good friend Jess came home - it was her house.
- Ate Lunch and what not then i reluctantly went home.
Fast forward an hour and a half Jess and i played 9 holes of golf on the Moruya Golf Course with two of my mates. It was the last 9 holes we would play these holidays and the last 9 holes i would be able to play with Lewis before he left for his schooling in Sydney.
- Lewis and Rhys in one cart, Jess and I in the other.
- Played the front nine
- Horrible start to say the least.
- Some improvement over the nine.
- Had a smokin caddy - Jess.
- Good way to spend your last moments with a friend - Lewis.
- Great way to end Australia Day.
And that's my...life as it happens...
