Australia! A land of staggering contrast and spectacular beauty – from coral reefs to ancient rainforests and scorched red deserts. This month we’re taking a trip to the land down under! The best part is, you don’t even need to pack your bags! Friday, January 26th is Australia Day and we’re celebrating like real Aussies do. We’ll test our knowledge with trivia and fun facts all Aussie related and enjoy a documentary on the landmarks that can’t be missed. What trip would be complete without a taste of local food & beverage, so we’ll also be serving lamingtons and Bundaberg ginger beer. After this adventure we’ll all know what a‘cooee’ is and what ‘Oi for drongos and galahs’ means. For now, I’ll just say, “G’day, mate!”
