I agree with what everyone has said on the padlet, in particular what Jessica has said about what the landscape would be like now without colonisation. I didn't realise that the SA Museum had so many Aboriginal artefacts. I was also amazed at how many different varieties of spears there were and I hadn't seen a bark basket before. I am almost embarrassed that I have never taken the time to properly look at these wonderful artefacts.

I often walk or ride my bike along the river Torrens, and always find it hard to see the weir, and to see the river so stagnant and in an obvious state of environmental degradation. Why and how has the landscape of Adelaide been altered to suit the whims of the colonists. During my walk through the city, I thought about how rich the plains would have been, the clear water of the river, the abundance of fish and yabbies that would have been there, the idea of rolling land, red gums lining the water and the murmur of wind through the trees. I revel in the idea of how incredibly abundant this land would have been. What are the stories of this land? What existed here before? And is what we see now truly better?

After walking around the city, I have noticed many works that I didn't once see. For example I have walked past this location multiple times without even knowing the Ceramic Frieze existed.

I really enjoyed this exercise! It certainly opened up my eyes to things that I walk past daily without giving much thought. It has given me a greater appreciation of the area we live and its history.

I had no idea that the tiny church on North Terrace was the oldest Anglican church in Adelaide. In this 1839 painting of what is now North Tce, the church can be seen with the peaked roof, looming in the background on the left. I'm finding it hard to imagine the cbd as such a rural location.

I have really enjoyed our walks around this beautiful city and the opportunity to be able to connect in a small way with it's rich and significant Indigenous history.

I've always loved the city and its landscape, the way its consistently changing. It feels like a giant playground sometimes full of exploration. A "patchwork" skyline like a sowed blanket is something I've always compared it to, classic to modern to in between all shuffled around and laid out.

On my walkabout exercise around the city, it wasn't so much about what i physically saw with my eyes, but more about trying to paint a picture in my mind of what the landscape looked like in the not so distant past. One of the things that stood out to me was the age of the small church next to the morphett street bridge, It made me think and try to envision how unwelcome it must have seemed to the native people of the time. i also thought the kaurna mythology about yurebilla was fascinating, and i will never look at mount lofty the same again!

I don't wander around the city much, so I found this task enjoyable. It has further expanded my appreciation for history as I didn't realise that there were places with such historical value.

It's amazing just how much history this very location has. Really made me stop and wonder about other places around Adelaide and about the Indigenous significance they hold, but have been covered up by the ever expanding concrete jungle.

I'd never been in this place before
