On thursday, the 26th of january, was Australia day! This is the biggest event in Smithton in the year. There was an even "twilight at the duck" at the Duck river in Smithton. It started at 3.00pm. Almost everyone from Smithton went to that. There was a music band, heaps of tents with food and there was also a helicopter. it was a good vibe. After tea Shae (my bestfriend in tassie) and me wanted to have a ride on the helicopter. So we went, paid and hopped on the helicopter. It was a great view on your right from Smithton over seven miles beach to Stanley. You also could see Rocky Cape which is a bit further that Stanley. And on your left from Smithton to Montagu and Robbins island! After the helicopter ride we went dancing! The band was just awesome! at like 9.30 the fireworks were on and after this all people went home. It was a pretty good event for Smithton. I didn't think it will be that good after I saw new years eve in Smithton. There was nothing on! No firework at all!
