Aborigine  Art

Very few non-Aussies visit here  ( and not many Aussies either ) .... so they had a "welcome & protection ceremony" for us.

They don't normally paint their faces   ..... it's only for ceremonies.

It was great fun scrabbling up the rocks to find interesting "weathering" patterns ... and wading thru the water.   ( no kidding .... it really WAS )

Flat-back Turtle

&

Tracks

One of the Ant Tunnels is that wavy white line crossing the rocks.

 Most of the shells we found were in almost pristine condition.

of the tunnels.

some unique

rock "sculptures"

The tunnels were fascinating to go thru ...... and the art was sometimes just down-right "spooky".

While getting to the high "sacred places" was difficult at times .... the views were well worth it.
