Went to the Dawn Service at The Shrine this morning.

When we got there about 5.15am didn't seem to be that many there. When it was finished and the sun had come up and you could see the crowd I was genuinely staggered by the size.

Have to say the Governor nailed her speech it was brilliant  :clapping

Huge numbers today at the dawn service

Will admit I was generally surprised by the crowd.

Special one today, powerful words from all speakers.

Best "Welcome to Country" I've heard.
