As I see it ....

Hello Yvonne here!

19th October will mark the 5th anniversary of the sinking of 535 asylum seekers on their way to Christmas Island on a boat dubbed
Siev-x. Here is an article about an attempt to establish a memorial in Canberra. Hopefully one day there will be a permanent national memorial we can visit.

On Friday we celebrated the mid-Autumn Festival where you're supposed to light lanterns (not as easy as it looks!), eat mooncakes and pomelo (a fruit) and gawk at the (supposed to be) full moon!
