Hanging in There

Travelling Blog Australia September 2009We arrived in Airlie beach in the middle of the biggest dust storm ever attributed to global warming, the sky filling with red dust from the countries huge interior where only wild camels roam.The first day I went with my brother, who is studying Buddhism, to a tree house set in the hillside. we were to learn about bells and their healing powers. An elderly woman with a german accent and a tea towel wrapped around her head led my brothers wife to a pile of cushions on which she lay and was surrounded by bells of all sizes. The small bells heal the head and the larger the lower chakras. After this peaceful ringing of chrystal bells we picked up pamphlets on how we could heal sessions and made our way to the tea house where, hanging from a rope by his neck was a teddy bear, supposedly a play mate for the dog. Well, My brother who travels everwhere with Black Bear, whose very scarf has been touched by the Dia Llama himself set to untie and free the bear.I guess a good title would be HANGING IN THERE....Take care people.love Jo Tuck
