Flying Fox Festival

We had "Walking with Spirits" at Beswick Falls on Saturday night and then Croc Festival went for three days until the Flying Fox Festival started and lasted for a week. Lots of Festivals! Something for everyone. I went to:

* dragon boat racing @ Nitmiluk National Park.

* Lambu Lambu Aboriginal Song & Dance featuring the Jarraluk Dancers and Yilila Band. The "CELEBRATE" banner was at Lambu Lambu and everyone was invited to add their bit in paint.

*Rhythms of Gambia drumming workshop.

*Tindal Open Day where the RAAF strutted its stuff (Hercs, jets, dogs, a band, drill marching).

*Parks & Wildlife ranger talk on flying foxes.
