The aboriginal way of live is quite different from ours. Even tough this was our third time of having a scheduled talk about it, it was the first one really explaining us their believes of the world. It really takes a longer introduction and a better explaining than just some dance and didgeridoo playing. And after some 2 hours it is really much easier to understand the things a tourist should understand. Sure, it's far from being everything, but certainly well enough for travelling. One of the native foods in the central Australian desert is the witchety grub, a caterpillar living in the roots of shrubs. The guide ate them alive, but we could only do that after they were cooked. So I can tell you they have no taste at all. When having the choice, I'd prefer them instead of the kangaroo tail I also tryed. |
