I went to my first ANZAC Day dawn service yesterday. It was beautiful; I loved hearing the odes read out and watching the old veterans make their tributes.
There was quite a large crowd there, but everyone was so quiet and respectful, even the kids. It was great to see the reverence that the Australian people (I guess I’m one of those now!) hold for those who fought and died to protect their freedom and way of life.

It was poignant to see people leave these rosemary tributes on the war memorial.
In response to the 14 April 2020 decision of Council and in lieu of the Anzac Day March, we have been working with the RSL, City of Adelaide Pipe Band and the Scotch College Caledonian Pipe band, all of whom participate each year in the Anzac Day March, to coordinate Pipers to play in various location across the City. Busy most nights of the week, you will find the Casino exceptionally busy during the late hours on a Saturday night, as the new 3am lockout laws have seen that the Casino is the only venue that people can get into after lockout hours. All the latest world sporting events are on the big screen in the Adelaide Casino’s Grandstand Bar. Subject to Covid-19 regulations, the Adelaide ANZAC Day March traditionally commences at 9.30am from North Terrace, Adelaide, from the SA National War Memorial, and turns right onto King William Road. The march concludes at the Cross of Sacrifice in Pennington Gardens, North Adelaide.

This side of it reads ‘They shall grow not old”.

The opposite side reads “We will remember them”.
After the service, Max and I went out for breakfast with a friend before spending the day relaxing, watching football, studying, gardening, and doing all those things that a good day off from work holds. I’m glad that we started the day with a service to commemorate those who have served, and those who serve now, far away from home.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
