Day 50: The Spectacular Jumping Crocodiles. So...we've seen Freshwater crocodiles in the wild at Windjana Gorge, but now we want to see the famoue Esturine crocodile (better known as the saltwater crocodile) in the wild. The problem is however, with all the swimming we have been doing, we have mixed emotions about actually seeing a wild one! So we go to the next best thing...wild salties living and breeding in the Adelaide River, that have been jumping for a bi...

Day 49: It's market day! We spend the morning at the CP markets (teeny) and I hold a python. We then head off for our trip to Darwin and 46kms later we are in the heart of the city. We check out the WWII oil storage tunnels, used to store the oil when Darwin was under attack. We then walk through the botanical gardens, which follow the harbour...beautiful. A lunch stop at Red Rooster...because we can, and then back to the car, to find my old school and house a...

Day 48: Twenty-five kms of dirt gets us into the famous Litchfield NP. A massive NP with lots of swimming holes and waterfalls...and we are not disappointed.

We watch a couple of blokes jump from a high rock, and Darcy and I...

Day 47: This morning we decide to move spots. Last night the simeltaneous stereo of the TV's did all our heads in. And waking up to a nose full of smoke is not part of the plan. So I go to the big rig section and scope a good site, we throw everything into the van and move. We only park the van, as we are running late to get the car to the mechanic. After we get lost by not taking the right turn, we finally get to Dundee Beach and drop the car off at the mechan...

Day 46: Today we went to The Territory Wildlife Park. This park is divided into three distinct habitats of the Top End, and has only animals, reptiles and birds from this region. It was a great day, and we all learnt a lot about the animals of the NT, and we were re-educated on a few animals we have seen on this trip. At the end of the day, we took a quick trip to Woolworths to restock. It's obvious now how close to the city we really are: 4 lane highway, lots ...
