We are now in Katherine Gorge, after having left Darwin about a week ago. Spent 1 day at Berry Springs having a good soak before tackling Kakadu and beyond. In Kakadu we made Jabiru our base and ventured out to Cahill's Crossing to have a go at Barra fishing ( 2 days later on a river cruise we saw a 3mtr Saltwater Croc not too far from where we were fishing !!). Made the pilgrimage to Ubirr to see the rock art and make the climb for the sunset ( cloud came over ...

Well folks the photo says it all, Trent was very pleased with his 15kg jewfish that he caught on the fishing charter, dad and Jamie were also lucky enough to catch a big jewfish each, all of them had aching shoulders in the morning, but it didn't effect their drinking arm.

Well howdy, family and friends we have made it to Darwin, which is just lovely a gorgeous 28- 30 degrees each day and about 20 o/night.

At last entry we left Mataranka hot springs to drive about 150 km to Douglas hot springs, another beautiful place. This was so nice we stayed in the camp ground for 3 nights, th...

Well what can we say another great few days has been spent at King's canyon. We ventured up the 500 or so steps and along the 6 km path of the King's canyon rim walk, although our hearts were pounding after all those steps, it was worth it as the views are spectacular. Lyla again had a great ride and slept at least half the way, Lachlan did not complain a bit as there were plenty of rocks to jump and climb over. The caravan parks have all been very nice and we...
