The Town Lajamanu

This area is forbidden to woman of any colour it's called the men's business area, initiations and ceremonies are held in here.

Same area showing the sign that says not to enter. If caught entering may be banned from community or big meeting of the community elders is held.

This is called the sorry area. When someone dies the community can come and sit here for days to mourn.

Our ambulance!!!!!!!! very old and dusty always have to have 2 people go out as the trolley is extremely difficult to get in without anyone on it, let alone with a pt on it. So the staff always encourage the family to bring the pt to the clinic.
The ambulance again which I also got to drive today..........well I backed it back into it's spot
