Didgeridoo at Circular Quay...


How The Didgeridoo Came To Be...
Two men were camped out on a cold night in the Australian outback. The fire was getting low and it was very cold. So, one of the men turned and grabbed a log, which was awfully light to the touch, because it was hollow. As he went to drop it into the fire, he noticed the entire length was covered with termites. He did not know what to do, he could not throw the branch into the fire, because it would kill the termites. Carefully he removed all the termites from the outside of the log by scooping them into his hand, and he deposited them inside the hollow branch. Then he raised the branch to his lips and blew the termites into the air. The termites blown into the air became the stars, and the first didgeridoo was created.
