A cultural tour at Gutharraguda

A cultural tour with Capes. Ate fish, played digeridoo, listened to stories. Louis was the boss, helping with firewood etc. He called Ollie "Muscles" as he was wearing a tank top. Ollie didn't like that. We tried to play the didge, didn't quite get there, didn't make the dog put his paw over his head though.
He was great, very funny. His folks had 14 children. They hid in the bush to prevent the govt from taking the children away. We ate three excellent fish smoked over the fire with the scales on and guts still in. He took the skin off, and flesh out after. Delicious! We all sounded ridiculous playing the traditional instruments. Didge is for men only. So the ladies had to try to make noise on some shell.
