I'm posting this on the eve of ANZAC Day in Australia. Read all about this national day in the ANZAC Day article.

If you're an Aussie overseas - how do you honour ANZAC Day?

Hello Megan. I am living in New Zealand and though I personally don't go to the local Cenotaph some of my family were there in the parade this morning.
I commemorated it by putting a special page in my Blog

http://rendere.blogspot.com

On the news just now it mentioned that there have been thousands out at the memorial services round the country and tens of thousands of Aussies and Kiwis at Gallipoli.

WE WILL REMEMBER THEM !

Hi Ellar

Nice to see a Kiwi here!

I love your special blog page - it's always special when your family takes place.

I believe that there were about 20,000 at Gallipoli

Megan,
I didn't have a chance to email you about your article. I put the link in the Today in History article for today.

Great Article. Thanks for the help.

We don't celebrate Anzac or Remeberance Day, although we have no choice here, and although my father, and grandfathers were in the world wars, and the Vietnam War, I don't agree with war, but anyway, that's not why I'm writing.
I was watching the news on Anzac Day, showing us where Gallipoli is, and how many Aussies were there, (I was not one of them), and I must say, I was appalled at all the rubbish we Aussies left behind. It was disgusting, and Im not saying it was everyone that was there, but it was like, look for the green patch to walk on. Piles and Piles of it. come on people, teach our kids to use a bin and clean up after ourselves. We can do, and are, better than that.

It sounds like a global problem. We are a messy species and leave a trail of litter in our wake.
