~ ANZAC Day in Melbourne (2011)

2011-04-30T17:14:00.044+10:00

Headed up the highway to Melbourne this year instead of staying in Geelong. As you'd expect, there were a lot more people, and the parade went for a LOT longer...but the sentiment is the same. A lot of respect is shown no matter where you go on ANZAC day.
