I stood out on the deck at 11:00 today in order to just take a moment and quietly observe Remembrance Day on my own. ANZAC Day in April is the public holiday here, so it was business as usual, and I was going in to school to work on a presentation at noon. I was lucky enough to get to hear the ceremony held at the Primary School around the corner. It was piped out to the neighbourhood on loudspeaker. Interesting to hear the Australian national anthem sung...but of course, why wouldn't it be?
