• Katherine Hello Again!

    Sep 16–22, 2024 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 34 °C

    Well hello again! After the return trip to Darwin for our new wheels, we dropped into Robins Falls then onto Katherine.
    If there was one place we wouldn’t have thought we would be seeing again? It was Katherine!
    We meet up with Vincent and Jane and this is we’re the fun started!
    Just outside the campsite the truck that Vincent and Jane were travelling in had an issue with the diff but that wasn’t it forward nearly 3 weeks and three new tyres , one reconditioned diff that didn’t work , one crap courier, mechanic in hospital and one trip into the desert for a second hand diff, they finally left Katherine on the 3rd Oct! You just couldn’t make this stuff up!
    During this time most nights were filled with laughter and drinks , I’m surprised we don’t get thrown out! We found an excellent Indian which we thought was closed , the outside resembled a war zone, boarded windows, over grown grass, we later find out he has his windows smashed all the time!
    The petrol station was robbed twice while we were there and had the pleasure of the lovely springs again.
    We said our goodbyes after extending our stay and went on our merry way to Victoria Roadhouse , hoping it wouldn’t be long before we meet up again!
