Day 16 - Australia Day!

We flew from Ayers Rock to Sydney in the afternoon and in the evening went along to the Australia Day celebrations in the local park. 

There were thousands of people there and the food stalls were doing a great trade.

Many of the stalls were being run by local organisations...

...providing a wide variety of food...

...but everyone was keen to celebrate.

There were plenty of very colourful costumes too...

...and lots of sideshows for the kids - the queues were enormous though!
