Well, since my last blog I have now travelled through central Australia and made it up to the capital of the Northern Territory Darwin! I have had a fantastic trip and seen some more great sights. The highlights were swimming in the thermal pools at Mataranka surrounded by hundreds of fruit bats, eating green ants and kangaroo tail while learning how to throw spears on an aboriginal experience day, a yellow river billabong cruise only topped by a jumping crocodile cruise and a hike in Kakadu National Park. Now arrived in Darwin for some much needed air conditioning after temperatures reaching 45 degrees! Not nice when you are camping.
Had a wild night in Darwin last night and now have a few days to chill before I head to Cairns!

It sounds as though you are having a wonderful, if not exhausting time - wish I was with you! Couldn't open the pictures you sent - it came out as an ASCI file. Will just have more to look at when you come home. Enjoy the rest of your trip. Luv Jan x
