ANZAC Day 25 April 2018

This morning we got up at 4.15am to leave for the Cenotaph for the dawn service for ANZAC Day

There was a good turn out to mark 103 years since the landing of troops on Gallipoli by predominately New Zealand and Australian troops. Other nations were also present on that morning, and also suffered the loss of many young men.

After the service the New Zealand and Australian high Commissions hosted a breakfast for New Zealanders, Australians and guests at the Holiday Inn Resort. A very good breakfast it was too. Tank yu tumas to both commissions. (though there was no Marmite only Vegemite).

After breakfast there was a game started. It involved tossing three coins to and betting on the result. President Obed had a go (I didn't see him making a bet). In this photo President Obed Mosses, Jonathan Schwass (New Zealand High Commissioner) and Jenny Da Rin (Australian High Commissioner) watch on.

The idea is to lay the three coins on a flat board (about 10cm by 5 cms) and toss the coins in the air and let them fall in the circle bordered by the white rope.
