Fiona was fortunate in July to be part of a group that travelled across Munga-Thirri (Simpson Desert), following the story of the Two Boys Dreaming. The journey was organised by Wangkangurru elder and park ranger Don Rowlands, and our group included his family members, including three teenaged grandchildren keen to learn about their culture and language. Also with us were a linguist, anthropologist, archaeologist, botanist, ecologist and film-makers. It was a hectic and action-packed ten-day trip, and a journey in many different ways for each of us. Protected Area Solutions has been honoured to be able to make a small contribution to the journey through helping with documentation. Both Queensland and South Australian governments have supported the intiative but it was carried on the shoulders of passionate and committed people.
