Nguara Kamanti, my family's place, my brother-cousin. Ngura pulka (a big place for Dreaming) Kapi pi (soakage) and father and son Wanamp (water serpents). They are go around looking for kuka (food)- hunting tingka (small lizards). Sneaking up on the tingka and then get him. Then coming back home. This is Pukara country, bush country, many trees, spinifex and sand dunes. The water is saltwater but drinking it anyway.
