‘At a certain time when Djindu (the Sun) was half way through his daily travel across the sky the men and women would stand close by Numbadda's twin blowholes where the sound of Numbadda was heard. In the spray of Numbadda's water, a rainbow would appear in the mist thus linking people, whales, ocean, sun, air and earth.’

'Throughout time the wind has blown over the country and the landscape has changed due to the shifting of the sands. Constant changes over the years form new hills, rivers and gullies.'

"This is my Grandfathers country the country of the Barngarla people the country where the shifting sands sculpture the lands."
