day 8: Coco’s Didj backpacker Katherine

My resolution of the day was to find a didj in Katherine, as Bilbo & Rico gave me good advice. Along with the conversation, Bilbo proposed me to have a customized Didj. After trying all the Didjs they made, I fell for one Didj in Do which is a very low key, full of bass so that your lungs enter resonance when playing: "I want the same one!" Bilbo would try to customize a didj in the next following 3 days, the time for me to visit the National Parks around.
As they were heading for the bush to find some the right Eucalyptus trees in order to make some "bombs" as they called they super-didjs, I decided to follow them to see how they were choosing the hollow trees eaten by termites. We stopped around at a "secret" location, walked in the bush to spot good trees. Humm, the bush seems to be a paradise for @!#$%% sandflies which had my legs for dinner…
Find here a pic of Rico cutting what he would call later the "dragon" a very bizarre shape Didj. Bringing back the trees to the van, we got caught by the night…
