The date is controversial to some Australians, particularly those of Indigenous heritage, leading to the use of alternate names, such as Invasion Day and Survival Day. Proposals have been made to change the date of Australia Day, but these have failed to gain widespread public support. (wikipedia).
The two preface above is copy pasted from wikipedia as I believe those are most acceptable definition by mainstream.
Today, as I experience this day, even since long preparations from council, NGO's, sponsors, local media, govern official, show that this day is only how to entertain public and family annually yet safely. That's it.
In fact, those are most of the expectation which is arise on the surfaces. Then get in to the mainstream is an easy way an fun. Enjoying the food, music concert, drawn in the crowd, air shows and fireworks is definitely wonderful way.
Well just enjoy the pictures below, Aussie.. Aussie.. Aussie... Oi.. Oi.. Oi..
