Being a tourist...badly!

---

Started today with lots of intention...after such a lovely esplanade sunset walk last night I wanted more of the beauty of Darwin.
Took a walk down to Cullen Bay- clearly where the people with money live and own boats! Very pleasant nonetheless!

After went in the opposite direction to the botanic gardens and an attempt to find the museum. Darwin is very well signposted (useful if you have direction as poor as mine!) but for some reason, the museum is in the most tucked away and non-signposted place ever...this combined with stupid maps that point to a general area and stupid heat...means a melting and lost Laura!
Finally found the museum though...with the help of a lovely Australian...and it was worth it!
Really amazing aboriginal art work and some stuff about Charles Darwin and crocodiles, including a real life (dead) gigantic croc which was very big...im sure the size was important...but he was called Sweetheart! I pay attention to detail! :P

Trying to load some pics up now before I go on my tour on Thursday.
Tomorrow I plan to not leave the hostel...I need a sun-break!
