Also, tell them about the similarities of our countries born out of adventure and exploration. Except, we were puritans looking for religious freedom and they were convicts. Thats WAY cooler.

lol, i did a legal secretaries course a few years ago. part of it was a look at the history/legal history of australia. australia was actually used as a penal colony AFTER America had been used as a penal colony, they rebelled and then couldn't send them there anymore. then they stored them in ships in the English harbours and when those got full, they started shipping them to australia. i rebelled, said THAT'S NOT TRUE, they were religious escapees from a repressive government. i promptly got laughed at for 5 minutes. who writes the history books, i was asked?? the victors of course! and so what was not wanted as a great nation's history, got erased. blurred. to be fair, a lot of the criminals sent from england, were petty thieves. stealing food to feed your families, poaching when the nobles parks were overrunning with stock, pissing off someone with more money or prestige then you did, being of the 'wrong' religion for the times - these were all criminal offenses edited to delete a line that sounded incredibly snarky towards luscious which was not what i meant in any way at all!

hot dogs, hamburgers, ribs, bratwurst, potato salad, macaroni salad, veggie trays, chip and pretzles, soda, beer, wine coolers, LOTS of ice, broccoli salad, watermelon, cantelope, apple pie, cherry pie, blueberry pie, homemade ice cream, chocolate cake, carrot cake, aw hell... any kind of cake is good. Usually any kind of finger foods go well at picnics.
