Back in Australia again

I'm back in Australia for another holiday and here I am standing in front of Adelaide University watching the young students hurrying by on their way to their classes.
It's a holiday here on Monday 26th to commemorate ANZAC day. It's a day to honour the brave Australians soldiers that sacrificed their lives for the country.
While strolling through the Botanic Gardens on a hot day I saw a rather strange and beautiful sight. Colourful parrots are stopping by at this fountain for a cool bath and drink. Like all the other wild birds found in the park and around the city they are not fearful of people.
As is obvious, I had a very relaxing holiday. The autumn weather was perfect and I got to spend time with my children. We went strawberry picking and sun-bathed at the beach. And of course we enjoyed the bountiful fresh fruits and food.
