Australia Day’s coming up soon! Whatever you have planned for that day, it’s best to be completely prepared to make the most out of it.
So whether you’ll be traveling, or you’ll be staying in one spot and you’ll be celebrating with everyone else, here are some of our tips to make it the safest, most enjoyable holiday yet.
Travel
If you’re going to be traveling and driving around during that holiday, be prepared and keep your vehicle in top condition, especially if you’re going on a long drive. You should have enough time to get your vehicle to your local mechanic for a quick check-up (as Australia Day is still a bit far off).
You could also have an OBD2 scanner installed on your vehicle to make sure that it’s in top condition, and that you’re aware of your car’s current status and ongoing status. This should help prevent any issues when you go out on the road for a long drive this holiday!
While you’re at it, a TPMS (tyre pressure monitoring system) to monitor your tyre’s temperature and psi/inflation level are also important to keep your vehicle running on the road. With it's digital precision, you wouldn't have to worry about suddenly getting a flat when you're driving- you'll know full well what your tyre's important statuses are before heading out.
Make sure that your dash cam and reversing camera are in top condition too- test it out before you set out on the road a day before. If your vehicle isn’t equipped with one yet, get yours here today; it’s been proven that a reversing camera or a dash camera can definitely make your trips safer.
Anything can happen out on the road too- so be sure to have these two as both an insurance and a safety measure.
Entertainment
Get some in-car entertainment while you’re at it- if you’ve got kids, make sure to pack a storage device like a USB or an SD card with their favorite shows or the latest movies to keep them entertained during a long road trip.
Your car DVD player is the perfect tool to keep your kids and your passengers entertained.
If you’re traveling with friends, a good sound system and an excellent in-dash car DVD player goes a long way to make for some really fun times.
If you haven’t gotten your hands on one yet, get yours here today at Elinz, just in time to get it installed before Australia day.
If you’re going to be celebrating in pubic, then you’re definitely in for some really fun events- make sure to check the Australia Day website to be able to participate in some events happening in your area.
Of course, you wouldn’t want to miss out on the fun- if you’ve got an action camera, take it out on the holiday and take some photos and videos- it should make for some great memories to reminisce with.
If you’re in Sydney, it’ll be a really fun day to go out! The entire city explodes in celebration- make sure to bring a camera- an action camera, preferably, to make it easier to carry and have you celebrating without carrying something as heavy as a regular DSLR or other unwieldy cameras.
If you haven’t got yourself one yet, you’re in luck- we’ve got a great range of action cameras available here at Elinz at the best possible prices. Do check them out and get yourself one before Australia day so you can record the coming festivities.
If you'll be celebrating in your mobile home, like a caravan trailer, we've got just the thing for you. Get our brand new inverter and never worry about powering up a whole host of gadgets while you're with family and friends- get yours here today.
Here’s to hoping that that smoke clears out before Australia Day so that we can all go out and celebrate. Again, make sure to check local events in your area via the Australia Day website- with all that’s been happening recently, we surely deserve a good barbeque and a really nice weekend.
Stay safe, and have fun on this coming Australia Day!
