Fun Fact:

I actually learned that a "gone walkabout" is when something or someone gets lost. So you are looking for the TV remote and Dad says, "Oh, it's gone walkabout again." i.e. it's lost. But a walkabout is what Aboriginals do to get back to their roots. So they walkabout, they don't go walkabout. Get it? distinction made?

So shout out to Alyssa Fiske for helping me tell my Mom that I am lost...whoo hoo. (Which I've ironically done quite a few times...hehe).
