In April of 2018 i was lucky enough to be able to travel to Canberra with my Mother and my second cousin we flew from Adelaide and he flew from Melbourne. when we got to the airport the first thing I noticed was that there were heaps of military personal with their army bags after that we got are cases of the carousel we got into a Avis hire car and headed to are hotel. When we got to are hotel we put all are stuff in the draws and talked for about an hour #family time. The next day we got up early and went and had breakfast at a nearby cafe then we got in are hire car and drove to the Australian war memorial after a walk around all the exhibits we had fish and chips at poppy’s cafe. around three in the afternoon we left the Australian war memorial and drove to the parliament house where we learnt many facts about the buildings history. the next day we had a lazy day we went kayaking in lake burley griffin. then the next day we flew home and that was are canberra trip

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

• Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
• Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

• Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
• What topics do you think you’ll write about?
• Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
• If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
