sign of Australia Day...


Australia Day was last Monday...
And that is always a time for celebration on the Dromana foreshore and on the beach...
I love the community breakfast - bacon and egg roll + coffee - and it's FREE!

Green and Gold


Interesting headgear worn on Australia Day - last Thursday.
The green and gold are Australia's sporting colours.

Fun kind of costume
An artificial mohawk
Quite a character



The green singlet indicates that he is a competitor in the Australia Day fun run from Dromana to Rosebud - along the foreshore of Port Phillip Bay.

Australia Day Skies


Yesterday was Australia Day - celebrating our founding in 1788.
And day dawned on the peninsula with a softly romantic sky.


The kookaburras wandered in to greet the morning with us.


By 8am, the Dromana pier area on Port Phillip Bay was buzzing with activity.
Many prepared for the fun run to Rosebud.
Some had already begun at Safety Beach - the longer run.
And the sky was the clearest blue.


By the time the crowds gathered, especially to hear the music, just wisps of white cloud appeared.


Some preferred to escape the crowds and enjoyed sailing.

Blue skies and blue seas
Our Australia Day seemed blessed
Great to be outdoors
