Inland trip to Darwin
... van groen naar dorre stukken en dat alle rivieren zo goed als uitgedroogd waren. Onderweg kwamen we ook het Australische 'wildlife' tegen: emus (een soort struisvogel), veel adelaars die uit waren op de karkassen van doodgereden kangoeroes en hagedissen. We zagen geen levende kangoeroes wat een beetje teleurstellend was maar er kwamen nog dagen.. We sliepen op een camping waar we kennismaakten met een ouder Nederlands koppel. Ze vertelden ons hun ...
Rutschen mal anders
... Josephine Falls, die unser Reiseführer für sehenswert hielt. Und das waren sie auch!

The park is huge and the sites were big enough to drive a truck through. The park is located right on the beach and was not even half full. Melissa was delighted to find out that the local Lions Club were ...
Snorkelling - Magnetic Island
... great experience but a shame as they are supposed to be nocturnal and have now become pests as backpackers think its great to feed them pizza etc!! After lunch me and Ruth had a stroll along Horseshoe Bay where we found tonnes of starfish washed up on the beach and some even burried under sand. We spent a few minuets 'saving' them however we noticed as soon as we put them back in the sea they would wash back up again and then deliberately cover themselves in sand to protect ...
