Day 61 Mataranka

Today we drove from Katherine to Mataranka.
In Mataranka we booked into a caravan park called Little Roper's Stock Camp. It had chickens, cows, horses, buffalos, snakes, pigs, saltwater crocodiles, sugar gliders, and peacocks.
Next we drove over to Bitter Springs where we floated down the warm river looking for turtles and little fish.
After the hot springs we went back to the caravan park to get changed for dinner. We went out for dinner at the Mataranka Homestead. While we ate dinner we listened to live music by a band called the Repeat Offenders.
After dinner we watched whip cracking in a show by Nathan Whippy Griggs. He holds the Guinness World Record for the most whip cracks in one minute and also for the longest whip, which is over 100 metres long. The show was amazing. He used glow-in-the-dark whips, flammable whips and it was very entertaining to watch.
Tomorrow we will be exploring the rest of Mataranka.Lue lisää
