5 DAYS DARWIN-ARNHEM-MELBOURNE

" He who does not travel does not know the value of men." Moorish quote

Greetings,
Few days at Arnhem Land closed to mass tourism and open to a limited number of travelers, after many hours by car from Darwin and Katherine

Here we go the break allow to go further for an exotic environment. And during our walk we will taste some aints with lemon flavour and recongnised some trees used for boomerang or Didgeridoo.
The colonies of kangaroos, Walabies, brightly colored endemic birds embellish the trip on this bush route

Aboriginal children have a fascinating memory, above their hard life restrictions...

Bodeidei Camp 

And the matriarch of Wheemol show us the secret of red colour used to paint on the rock by her ancestor who belong of that community old than 50 000 years 

 

The splendid views similar to prehistoric landscapes made me forget the baking sun which burns my skin

Sublime tree bark, painted with the colors of the bush by an elderly Aboriginal woman " Yibwoin"
fire-breathing dragon,tiger snake and woombat, reminds me the existence of an  inhospitable wildlife

the hostile landscape of the outback is full of black and brown termite mounds

 an unconscious swim in a natural pool call "kikilmara" by aboriginal, but the danger of a face to face with a crocodile do not cross any mind.

we appreciate finally a barbecue buffalo before admiring the sunset by listening the heartbreaking story told by the Aboriginal people of the matriarch wheemol

Ready for a walk to find this secret small forest with natural & so pure spirit  making you cry due to trees and leaves effects

Bcak to the city
