Darwin...the tropical part of Australia

---

2 countries, 9 airplanes, 1 rental car, 1 helicopter, 5 hotels, 1 BIG (luxury) bus, and many adventures...but who is counting! We arrived in Darwin today (Thursday for us - Wednesday for you). We are staying at the Crown Plaza on the 20th floor. Great views of the ocean...coastal town...beautiful! Warm - 85 or so...not quite as hot as Ayers Rock but a bit more humid. The area reminds me of Florida.

Tyler spent time in the pool - seems to love the water. Tomorrow (Friday) we are picked up @ 6:15 am for our 3 day camping trip. We won't be taking the computer with us...don't think we will have internet capabilities. The trip sounds like fun: Day 1 Darwin to Mary River (waterfalls of Litchfield National Park, birds and crocodiles for our river cruise); Day 2: Mary River to Kakadu (ancient Aboriginal rock art, hikes, plunge pools); Day 3: Dakadu to Darwin: 4 wheel drive action to Jim Jim Falls on our way to Twin Falls. The falls refer to "water" so don't be worrying about us falling.... 😊

We will be back in touch on Sunday (think it will be Easter). I asked Tyler if he wanted me to bring chocolate easter eggs and bunnies to hide in the forest. He opted for NOT.

We miss you all but having a great time!!!

More fun than you can count
It's hard to believe all you are seeing and doing. I get tired just reading about your adventures. Sounds like loads of fun. Chuck and I are off to Palm Spring at 4:30am on Friday morning. Wish you were here to take us to the airport. We'll be off the computer for the balance of your trip. We're home on the 30th. Can't wait to see you and hear about all your fun.
