This is hilarious! The Australian government is transporting little old me to a hotel! I wonder where we’re going? I’d be happy with a $50 a night Airbnb in Penrith, yet here we are at a five-star joint in central Sydney – very posh. Look at all these nice soldiers, pretending to be service industry workers. Of course you can take my bag, sir! And what’s this? A room on the 33rd floor! Well just look at that view. Wynyard Park below, Darling Harbour off to the right, planes gracefully approaching the airport to the south and Botany Bay beyond. And the room: a study in restrained opulence! A mid-century modern, walnut-hued design scheme. A nice deep bathtub. A chocolate on the pillow! Can a continental breakfast be far behind?

Juan Walker shades his eyes from the glare of the Queensland sun as he looks out over Kuku Yalanji country, his country, his ancestors' country. He sweeps his arm across the vista of Four Mile Beach, the lowlands where Port Douglas spreads, out to the hills in the far distance. This is where his people are from, he says. Out to the mountains there. And then his voice barely changes pitch as he continues: This is where the white bounty hunters would roam. This is where they would hunt and kill the Kuku Yalanji people and carry their heads back to town to exchange for money.

"The trek was very hard but it has given me the confidence I can achieve anything I put my mind to," Ms Healey said.
"It's also given me an appreciation of what soldiers went through during the Second World War.
"It was the hardest thing I've ever done."
Prince Philip established the award, which started in Australia in 1959 and has since been completed by more than 775,000 young Aussies.
"It's what I like to describe as a do-it-yourself growing up kit," he once said of the award scheme.
Prince Philip died on April 9. He retired as patron of the award in 2017 and was succeeded by his son Prince Edward.
