Since our last update we have travelled far and wide. When in Townsville we visited the biggest reef museum in Ausatrlia. We then travalled across country to Mt Isa.... that journey only took us 15 hours, which included sitting at a road block fro over two!!! From there we drove to Katherine (up the middle), that journey was over 1300 Km's and took us about 12 or so hours. By the end we were exhausted, wobbly, fat (from water retention), we booked into the most horrible cabin, but managed to sleep like the very tired do!From there we have travalled North and are now just 20kms south of Darwin.

The weather here is silly hot, it is about 35/40 most days... we can not wait for rain - although after a week back in the UK we are sure we will be wishing for sun again.

A few statistics for you all.... we have driven over 5000 kms since leaving the Blue Mountains, we have spotted 157 dead kangeroos by the road side (counting them passes the time)....

Enough stats, have a look at the new piccies :O)

Love to you all
