Gilruth Avenue, Mindil Beach Darwin, Top End, Northern Territory, Australia, 800, 8-8943-8888
... and then other passengers. Not only was my nose under assault from their curiously strong odors, but we all had to listen to them yell and carry on. One of the women was all about the f word and I can report that its usage works much the same down under as back home.
Somewhere along the way one of her male companions decided that a city bus is the proper venue to feel her boobies up so she just let loose on him. When I say let loose, I mean she beat the ...
... 2nd stop was Tolmer Falls, 3rd stop was Florence Falls and the final and our favourite place was Wangi Falls. We kept the walks to a minimum today as it was very hot, but we did lots of swimming and cooling off.
As we have been driving the Territory, we have noticed huge termite mounds all around. There are two types of mounds - “Cathedral” and “Magnetic”. The “Cathedral” mounds look like ...
... in the hotel which was really cool!!! Then as they were sorting my room out i saw one of my mates from the East Coast who is staying and working in the same hostel which was wicked!!!
So i had about 2 days to kill in Darwin so had a good look around and sat in the sun! The next day i had to get up at 5am to catch my bus which was going to take me all around Darwin and to Litchfield National Park. First day we went to Buley Rock ...
... 8211; perhaps that is a good thing!
The off to the East Point Military Reserve where Steve visited the museum and I walked around taking photos of the remains of the observation posts and ammunition stores. I still find it hard to believe that Darwin was bombed to the extent it was and for the length of time – someone said it went on for 18 months although I haven’t read that anywhere and of course it was hushed up at the time apparently.
We then went on to ...
... night, it was really ambitious, but we persevered despite Kynan being completely trashed, he needed to sleep. At the market everyone is able to eat something from a stall of their choice, so it’s a great way to enjoy dinner.
Sleep was a commodity I’d well and truly under appreciated before Neaka’s arrival. I helped her attempt to get some by sleeping with Ashton and assuming night duties a few times.
The mayhem ...

... the fact that they were taking a risk buying the thing and so were going to get it fully checked out by a mechanic- we told ourselves it was an honest deal! Although guilt chased me all throughout the rest of our time in Cairns…once we had sold the car we made sure we were well and truly within the campsite’s grounds at all times, we had visions of the guys rolling into the campsite with the car - demanding their money back!
Now that that chapter of our ...
... in getting pieces the right size to fit in the sack which we carry in the car. We don't have an axe so there is a bit of crunching and breaking up to do – a lot of the wood is partly charcoaled already so you end up getting pretty dirty and hot. The only thing that stops you from giving it up is the thought of a nice warm fire later on – it’s hard to get your head around the fact even though it’s so hot during ...
Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia liznrobI eventually dragged myself out of my comfy bed and went to explore Darwin. I called at the tourist information centre and picked up a heritage walking trail self-guide. Before starting I had bacon and eggs and coffee in the mall. Darwin has a facinating history and is a very new city so the heritage trail wasn't too long. I had to make ...
Darwin then back to Perth, Northern Territory, Australia latestarter... raka kokku omaenda tatiga. Kuna neid on pesades miljoneid, siis jagub nii tatti kui ehitajaid. Kakadust suundusime edasi Katherine'i, mis Lonely Planeti kirjelduste järgi oleks justkui suur ja elav koht, aga tegelikult on see sama väsinud ja hulkuvaid aborigeene täis olev väikelinn nagu Alice Springski. Austraalia depressiivsed väikelinnad, võiks öelda. Linna läbib üks suur maantee, mille äärt palistavad mõned poed ja paar söögikohta. Aborigeenid paistsid jälle olevat ...
