Territory Day in Darwin
1 luglio 2017, Australia ⋅ 🌙 22 °C
We didn't expect to arrive in the middle of a celebration but we did! The first of July is an anniversary of the Northern Territory starting it's own government. And it's also the one day a year anyone can buy and set off fireworks! Our apartment is at the waterfront and we can hear a lot of fireworks and we can see the big ones. Hopefully no-one starts a fire! Uncle Buster came for a BBQ on our balcony.Leggi altro

Waves, wharf and markets!
2 luglio 2017, Australia ⋅ 🌙 23 °C
We have had a big fun day! We went to the wave pool near our apartment, and it was so much fun!! Then we had a big walk to the South Hill Wharf where we saw memorials to the bombing of Darwin and had an icecream. Mum was excited to go to the Mindil beach markets. The beach was really nice and we bought necklaces at the market and went on a bouncy castle slide. Ruby lost a tooth so the snowcones helped! Sam said he saw a lot of things that remind him of Melbourne, especially the war memorials.Leggi altro

Tunnels, crocodiles and Uncle Buster!
3 luglio 2017, Australia ⋅ 🌙 26 °C
We are staying right near the special tunnels of Darwin. They were dug out to store fuel for warplanes, so it couldn't be blown up by bad guy bombers in World War 2. Seems like hard work, all that digging! There was also a cool robot made of old ship parts.
Then we went to a crocodile centre in town. We had our photos taken with a little crocodile called Fluffy. He felt soft to hold and he's was very calm. We also liked the snakes and lizards and turtles. We had a nice time exploring shops in Darwin.
Tonight we had dinner at Uncle Buster's house. He cooked yummy fish on the balcony. His house and pool are very tropical! We loved playing with Baz the dog.Leggi altro

Termites and waterfalls
4 luglio 2017, Australia ⋅ 🌧 17 °C
What a big day we have had! We went to Litchfield National Park and it was so hot. Really hot. Hard to believe it's winter here!! So some of the walking was hard work but it was amazing to see big beautiful waterfalls. In the forest we saw and heard lots of very noisy bats. We saw some huge amazing termite mounds that were 3 times bigger than people. The little termites build the towers with air pockets to cool their underground homes. There were black landscapes with fresh green growth, from the Aborigines burning off the land. Our favourite part of the day was swimming in a waterhole with a waterfall. We could swim right under the waterfall like a bath and shower all at once. So refreshing! And not a crocodile in sight. Let's sleep well tonight.Leggi altro

Bye-bye wave pool, and bye-bye Darwin!
5 luglio 2017, Australia ⋅ 🌙 26 °C
After our big day yesterday we relaxed near our apartment and went to the wave pool twice! We all loved it. We also had a little explore up the hill into Darwin city and found a horse wearing pants. It was another hot day but not as hot as the National Park yesterday.
We had to wash our hire car Monte, Ruby will miss him! We had a special Asian dinner with Uncle Buster. It's hard to believe we will be home tomorrow...Leggi altro
