ANZAC is still a big event in the southern hemisphere... Guess it is the one day that the two wonderful love hate countries in the southern hemisphere take a break from having a dig at each other and stand united...
Here are some facts about the ANZAC
"It marks the date the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps- the Anzacs- landed at Gallipoli in Turkey in 1915, and engaged in a gruelling battle that was their first real teast of World War One"
"During World War One, 18 500 New Zealand soldiers were killed and around 50 000 injured at a time when the population was just over one million."
Went down with Natalie to Martin Place to admire the wreaths...
