The Christmas and New Year celebrations have come and gone and I’m slowly getting back into the routine of work possibly just like you. Before you start thinking about Easter (bit hard not to do when the shops are already stocking Easter eggs) set your sights on planning an Australia Day to remember.
If you are stuck for ideas on what to get involved in, check out what is happening in your State here.
Here’s my tips for a fun filled day……
1. Dress for the occasion – Wear the colours of the Australian, Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander flags with pride. Get it all happening, the togs, the thongs and the Aus Day tatts. Whatever you decide, enjoy the day and have a laugh.
2. Put on a good ol’ Aussie bbq – cook up a storm and chuck another lamb chop on the barbie just when you think you can’t eat anymore.
3. Don’t forget dessert. Now’s the time to learn how to make Pavlova.
4. Be inspired by the awesome stuff we Aussies do. Wonder who will walk away with the Australian of the Year award in 2012?
5. Last, but not least…after spending the day with friends and family, enjoying the sun, surf and Aussie grub you might be inspired to think up a brilliant idea to contribute in your own way to making Australia great. If the time is right, please share your idea…I’d love to be inspired by you.
