Walk-about was about learning, looking, listening, learning. Walk-about was about the song lines. So, these were pathways. These song lines were like pathways though the country. And along these song lines, we would dance and sing. At the same time the uncles will be pointing out certain trees, the names of them and the purpose for them. And one song line could entail walking for most of the day just doing song and dance. And then at night we would stop at a camp fire. And then the uncles would sit around, and share certain stories about the songs that we were just singing along them song lines.
