BEACHBEACHBEACH

look it looks so inviting especially in humid heat!
SO feeling big we started for darwin with hangovers! Only 80ks. The car was noticably bigger than most other cars we felt cool and evryone stared at us. So pulled in round beaches we headed to main beach to cool down and lo and behold we were not allowed to swim due to there being box jelly fish in the water and it looked so pristine and blue and we hadnt seen the sea in three months so we were very very very upset. So we had to have a shower which was refreshing and then headed into the city which was extremely strange to drive in with all this trffic and people and stuff like lights which havent seen for ages. So we used internet only to return and find we had a parking ticket yey. FOR PARKING IN THE WRONG DIRECTION?????? pulled over other side of road to park and paid for ticket and came back on time even though it poured down with rain as went back to car so got soaked.....and they fined us. So I decided we were to get an indian takeaway for treat especially after going into police station and shouting at woman about
BIG SIGNBIG SIGNBIG SIGN

No swimming.... at all???? gutted
