    Around Darwin

    November 12, 2020 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C

    Another day spent around Darwin. The heat was starting to get to us a little so we took this one a bit easier. Usual routine of gym and breakfast to start the day, then had a bit of a look around the main shopping mall. Not a whole heap to see there. Went to the local camping store to find a small towel to use when we shower at the airport on Saturday.

    Went down to the waterfront and had a look inside one of the oil tunnels they built in the cliffs just after the bombing of Darwin in 1942. Was kind of interesting but nothing which blew me away.

    Getting hot and bothered by this stage so we spent a bit of time lazing by the water at the waterfront. Eventually prized ourselves off the chairs and grabbed some lunch by the wave pool before heading back to the hotel for a well earned swim.

    Another rest then walked towards Mindil Beach where we sat for about an hour waiting for the sun to set. So more lazing about really! Instead of walking back to town we decided to hire some electric scooters which was great fun.
