Took a few photos at the Adelaide City Australia Day Parade. There are a couple of special mentions:-
Bring it on, ISIS. We are ready!

Fair go Dottie, at least they are all heading in the same direction even if the foot fall looks a bit like a centipede on the move

That says to me these people are not too proud of their uniform if they can't march, I call it a disgrace but then I am pretty well for the services and pride (thanks to my daddy)

Fair go Dot, They probably would go alright if there was some things going boom. I used to know a bunch of old diggers that couldn't march if their life depended on it, but they all had a crack when remembering their mates.
