E ven
though the weather forecast was for cloudy day Australia Day came
with sun in the sky. It was hot but enjoyable.
Once
again we have to thank Margaret and John Barter for their
hospitality in opening the doors of the Broad Water Yacht Club.
There
was a great turnout of boats to participate in the tradition of the
Broad Water Classic. Light wind and calm seas made the race very
relaxing.
Poems,
songs and stories in the theme of Why I Love Australia abounded
accompanied by the traditional Lamington, Ozzie Cup Cakes, Pavlovas
and ample quantities of Brown Ale, Red Nels and cool White Wine.
Once
again a GREAT Day.
Thanks
to the Master of the Trims
