Ernie is going to live in Arnhem Land for a year.

He flies above the desert for hours, travels over

the floodplains, crosses the East Alligator River

and arrives at his new home....

Here are Ernie's letters, describing

the life he discovers with his new friends in their

wild and beautiful land.
