Yes we were there that day ,beautiful at schools too they were dressed by those times clothes and danced with teacher in green grounds round the pole with ribbons primary school children quite nice celebrations in city Sydney ,a day to remembewuite young beautiful country 200 yrs old at botany Bay he landed captain Cook 1788- 1988 Australia ,a land of opportunity Australia, sunny Sydney, lovely
I wish I had the chance to really celebrate this timeline event but I was only 9 years old at the time though. But this is the kind of Australia I wish I could be living in where everything/everyone was pretty much happy, laidback and carefree?! This was "luck country" Australia that is sadly gone now in 2018. I bet if we all knew that this time would never ever be repeated again, it would've been even more significant to celebrate this once in a lifetime never to be repeated event again...
I was only 2 and a half nearly. yep I don't remember this actually. the country doesn't reflect this at all anymore. this was when the country was basically being sold off and here we are.
Exactly here as I made this comment around 2018 here...Now it's 2021 here and the country couldn't be even more divided than it is now because of obvious reasons...The more I look at this 1988 event, the more dim and shadowy the memory becomes as time goes on. Soon it will become a distant memory. You are right by 1988 secretly the sell outs began but it was subtle as not to alarm a post nationalist/secularist public by then even though by 1989/90 the Tiananmen Square massacre happened?! A tearful PM Bob Hawke gave a speech about it as he seemed sincere which is rare for a PM but by 1991 it didn't matter if he won the election or not because sellouts began by then all enforced by other PM's right after him till 2019 post 2021 here. The rest is history and dark days ahead here
@@TheAxelay don't tell that to your parents though lol... they won't understand a word you are talking about sadly. hahaha yep I was saying to myself you wrote this comment in 2018 or so.... I can only imagine what you must think now post march- 2020. yes the country was officially sold off in 1972 to china but yeah bob hawke (this era seen) was in on it doing his share and it got worse over the years. this was the mel gibson... paul hogan era as well and we were in the spot light in the entertainment but I would love to believe at least that was a good thing... the sydney olympics was still far in the horizon. and do I need to bring the internet into it besides all else mentioned lol... and we wonder why it is nothing the same but at the moment the net is a savior somewhat at least. but all that aside... I don't remember this massacre you are talking about. I will have to look that up Matt.
I was 9 too! And feel exactly the same! Mass immigration, multiculturalism and now extreme left woke ideologies, have destroyed everything that made this country once so great.
@@tigermotive2378 , there will be a turn around on a world wide scale as countries are starting in embrace old conservatism and old customs but it will take time. It'll hit australia as well but we're always so slow and behind in trends as it's always been even back in the 80's as well. Alot of damage will be done here sadly...

so difficult to view these when we now know in 2017 that Charles was being so cruel to Diana and rubbing his mistress into her face daily since their engagement in 1981. Sigh are the Aussies going to have this monster as King soon?
I was there this day.. Australia has been all down hill since. This was the peak of Australian culture.

Thanks heaps for this .... I was on a boat on the Bay that day and have 'seen' our boat quite a few times :-) bought back lots of memories ..... :-)
I participated there....I was at P.N.S TUGHRIL(Pakistan Destroyer class ship)
I was there that day, near Mrs Macquarie's Chair.
I blew up a few thousand of those balloons.
Then Charles n Di n The PM requested a 2nd release as well.
