Elliot

Elliot
The area is the home of the Jingili people and the traditional name of the town is Kulumindini
the town lies on important Dreaming tracks.
Elliott, the halfway point between Darwin and Alice Springs, 250 kilometres north of Tennant Creek,
The town has a population of 700 .

We are here till next week Karen is working the clinic here.
When we arrived here a few days ago we saw a bloke with a camel next day met him at the clinic as he said he had a sore leg him not the camel.
I asked if I could take a photo of the camel where was it he said sure we are staying over at North Camp. Yesterday I headed off with a water bottle and camera and was wondering if I was on the right track and there was the camel eating one of the trees on the track. His name is ' 'noodle'He is a male camel and him and his mate are walking around Australia.

Met up with Bob and Deb McKerrell who are travelling around the outbacks taking Christ to Indigenous Communities. I joined in their Bible club yesterday hence the picture of Paddy and God made the giraffe they didn't have a camel one.

It is quite hot here so we are enjoying the air conditioning.

Greetings

Ian and Karen
