Description & Facts: It is Australia Day, the national day of Australia! I go around Sydney showing some places like Hyde Park and Circula Quay, where especial celebrations were been held. Sydney had many attractions this 26 January but unfortunately I had to go to work in the afternoon, so I couldnt go to Darling Harbour for the fireworks for example. But I saw the tall ships under the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the F-18 jets crossing the sky above the Opera House and the Australian flag held by a helicopter near Circula Quay. The weather was great in Sydney, perfect to celebrate the Australia Day 2010!

Celebrated annually on 26 January, the day commemorates the arrival of the First Fleet at Sydney Cove in 1788, the hoisting of the British flag there, and the proclamation of British sovereignty over the eastern seaboard of Australia.
