• Darwin City and surrounds

    Roger and I head in early to the city to go to Aquascene Fish Feeding. Once we've done this, we leave our ute parked there in the carpark and go walking to go have some breakfast. We're heading to Cafe Twenty One as Roger has been speaking with a nice elderly man who recommend this Cafe. We find it and do enjoy a good feed - Eggs Benedict for Roger and Avocado Smash with poached eggs for me. We both have fruit smoothies - nice and cool. After this we go wandering to have a look about Darwin - we come across some Beam scooters and decide to hire a couple for an hour (almost took us longer to sort ourselves with the App and payment etc, but we got there). This was great and we rode about along the water and down to the wharf. Have fun checking out the cruise yacht (Eclipse 1) that Jenny and Michael have been touring on, before heading back towards where the ute was parked. We ran out of time on our scooter hire short of getting back, so we had to leave the scooters parked in the park and walk again. We get back to the ute and drive to Fannie Bay Goal - do a free self guided tour.
    After this we go for a drive to Darwin Trailer Boat Club to have a drink - terrific spot to enjoy a beach front view.
