Darwin

Well after all the excitement of the past few weeks we definitely needed some real R and R😉😄😄. We had one more day to fill in before Darwin so we camped on a guys farmlet which was close to Berry springs, more warm artesian water as if we need it in these temperatures, but when in Rome do as the Romans do so off we went for a swim. It was very nice but very crowded.
Now we had booked into a hotel in the middle of Darwin, so we could enjoy what Darwin has to offer. We walked everywhere we could, taking in all the sites and touristy things there were, like the Mindel markets, Stokes wharf, the beautiful walk along the western side of the city which has an uninterrupted view of Darwin’s bay and Cullens bay, at which the sea is held in by a loch so all the mansions built on edge don’t have to put up with the eight metre tides.
One of the days we hired e scoters, which were a lot of fun. The Mindel markets were, for me, just another lot of markets selling a lot of junk and temping me with a lot of junk food I didn’t need, but sadly I did partake.
Darwin itself is a beautiful city as I said with a lovely outlook over the bay, reasonable shopping and a great entertainment street called Mitchell street 😎. We dined out every night with a different cuisine each night. As our bank accounts deflated we expanded but a lot of fun. Whilst playing around we had the blown out tyre fixed and our aircon fixed again! The bloody thing keeps failing us.
All in all a very different five days but we had a great time. Next is Litchfield National park and down to Daly river.Читать далее
