The Parade!
Children on board, now to catch up to the band in front of us and the ex-soldiers, nurses and families on right.
There were many bands.
Some of the lucky children who enjoyed the trip with us.
Catching up...
There she is the reason for this parade a week before ANZAC Day, the new Winged Victory. The Winged Victory that stood here before was almost 100 years old and was starting to fall apart so Marrickville Council sent it to the Australian War Museum in Canberra and built a new one to replace her... just beautiful she is and coincidentally Jack and Charlie saw the old one in the Museum only last week while they were in Canberra.
