Northern Territory

Have now returned from holidays and back at work...

The Northern Territory was great.

We didn't spend much time in Darwin but enjoyed the time we spent there. We had a great dinner at Hanuman and the Museum / Gallery is smallish but really good.

Then we hired a car and explored Litchfield and Kakadu.

Our day in Litchfield National Park was really good. Swimming in water holes (and not getting eaten by crocodiles!), hiking through extremely varied bush, driving (fast) past all sorts of scenery. We then had a couple of great days in Kakadu National Park. The Yellow Water Cruise was fantastic (crocodiles, lots of birdlife, fascinating scenery), M&I won the trivia competition at the Cooinda lodge and made Dutch and Swedish friends, we did a few exhausting hikes through spectacular scenery and just generally had fun.

Then the joy of a 2.20am flight back home.
