We spent most of yesterday swimming in litchfield with dani and Aaron. The boys took issy and Ella to the rock pools for a swim while Chloe slept. We then tackled the treck down to Florence falls... 145 steps there and back. At least wasn't carrying issy (sorry stu!). Lunch by the falls and swimming under the water fall was great fun but my heart was pounding :) Stu n I went for a drive for issy's sleep. Then we came back to camp and spent the afternoon trying t...

Thursday with dani and Aaron in Darwin was a day of getting organised, picking up cars and trailers and shopping for supplies. We ended up going to the leanyer water park late afternoon, there was hardly anyone else around. Issy was terrified of the kids play area cause it had a bucket that filled with water then spilled, so she wouldn't go near it. I think the bigger kids had more fun than the little ones. Dani and I went shopping for last minute things while A...

Weve been in Darwin for a few days. We arrived Sunday afternoon, drive around the city after lunch while issy had a sleep then checked into the 'Fannie bay beach house'.

She is also in their cot which is much more like her own, so I think she's sleeping a bit better. Sunday night we went to menindil marke...

Was amazing and an amazing amount of water falling! We also went to tolmer falls and in the afternoon (post the sleep time drive in...

Spent 4 nights in Katherine after a two day trip from lawn hill. Had a great stay with Roly Lis and the boys and some people (Richard, Natasha, Edward and Madison) they had meet along the way. They are headed west because many the roads in NT are still closed, we might see them later in the trip if our paths cross. We are at Litchfeild national park and will hit the waterfalls tomorrow as Issy is keen for a swim, stay for a few nights and then to Darwin (primary...
