Watching the children play red light green light (run & stop) game, a lot of fun happening on the beach.

Sitting in one of my favourite places it's #ChristmasEve on #Bwgcolman country. We are about to have carols by the beach and some community food. The breeze is beautiful. Wherever you are & whomever you are with I wish you peace, joy & safety 🕊🎄

[Lynore K. Geia @LynoreGeia]

Then there are places in community where you can get away & breathe, have a swim & social distance. Big tide today on #Bwgcolman country. This is a favorite coffee/lunch spot I go to when I am working on country.

You’ve got to love this imagery - @ashbarty has lifted the whole country up, not just the #Wimbledon trophy #BartyParty 🎾

After several long weeks at Parliament and travelling the country, I'm glad to have some time at home in Broome. This is a challenging time for many. I hope wherever you are, you draw some comfort from the beauty of this land.

Andrew Bolt has continually used his media platforms to question the validity of the #StolenGenerations. His assertions are incredibly hurtful and damaging for survivors and their families - but Gilbert McAdam isn’t having it.

Some peaceful sound from this afternoon's walk on the beach. #Bwgcolman country. For all my friends in NSW and Victoria.

23 June is Olympic Day. And today the @AUSOlympicTeam has launched a campaign called 'Have a Go', letting Australians know that, 'Great things happen when you Have a Go'. ... Today I reflected upon where it began for me, #HaveAGo Happy #OlympicDay2021 #DreamBig 🙌🏾💛💚🥇👣

The channel lights leading the boats in to safety. #Bwgcolman country

[Lynore K. Geia @LynoreGeia]

Three #Bwgcolman teens, I call this one, 'three little brothers' just chilling, sitting on the stone jetty, yarning & laughter. It's so lovely to see this. They're the community's treasure, we want their future to be rich w/ possibilities they can attain.

Love this light #Bwgcolman country .

[Lynore K. Geia @LynoreGeia]

My childhood play ground.. these steps go into the water . I gathered cockles, chased soldier crabs, built sand castles, nearly drowned and a young teenager saved my life in the 60s .. so many heart felt memories at this one spot.

This memorial is to 7 leaders 1957 Strike Palm Is for better conditions for families. We were under Govt control at that time. The 7 men & family were removed by police at gunpoint. This memorial overlooks the beach where they were sent into exile 13 June '57

End of the fishing day. A lot of boats in the water this evening, families returning from the day's outing. #Bwgcolman

[Lynore K. Geia @LynoreGeia]

An impromptu game of rugby on the sandbar. Beautiful winter day, just arrived on #Bwgcolman country. Working with young people. The sunlight streaming down on their play. I love this island and the people ... my heart.
