Darwin

After a reasonably tortorous day in which we left our Chalet in Cherating at 9am and arrived at our hotel in Darwin at 4.15am I am now back in Australia.  We felt like we were on the Amazing Race - a 45 min taxi then a 7+ hour bus trip (including a border crossing from Malaysia into Singapore) then a longish walk then a taxi then the most uncomfortable flight I've ever taken (4 1/2 hours Tiger Air Singapore-Darwin - it brings a new meaning to the words 'Economy Carrier') then a shuttlebus.  All while carrying this ****** unbelievably heavy stone sculpture I bought in Siem Reap and have now lugged around for about 2 weeks.
 
In any event, looking forward to a NT adventure before arriving home later this week.
