In Darwin

---

Hey everyone,
We are in Darwin ready for Dee and Kieran's wedding today. We have had a great time and stumbled upon some great place like the Combo Billabong, were Banjo Patterson first penned his famous Waltzing Matilda. Rachel played the tune on her violin right beside the billabong. It was great. We have visited the Stockmans' Hall of Fame in Longreach, camped in Camooweal on the NT border, swan in the thermal springs in Mataranka and Bitter Springs - beautiful and checked out Litchfield National Park. Tonight we are all looking forward to our room at the Skycity Hotel in Darwin, after camping out on previous nights.

Talk soon
Suzanne

Hello...
Hey guys! Good to see you're having fun... I too would look forward to sleeping in a hotel after camping out for, how long? Almost a week isn't it?? WOW... it must have been really cool to visit the place where Banjo Patterson started writing Waltzing Matilda, let alone playing the tune there!! PS: You're right - that IS a giant anthill!!
