Experiencing the Wet - Night 138

Again the wet maintained its classic rhythm of brief, violent showers interspersed with periods of relative calm. It was during one of these respites that I managed to sneak away from the hostel and take a stroll along the water. Advertised as a beautiful harbor walk, the area and the trail is...

Dilly-Dally in Darwin - Night 137

Living in the northern hemisphere most of the maps we see are not centered on the equator. They usually cut out Antarctica and the much of the vast, empty southern oceans in order to avoid all the unnecessary blue on the map. Thus, we seem to have this internal feeling that Australia is...

Katherine Gorge to Darwin - Night 136

We awoke early again, though this time to a cool breeze. A small storm had dropped some rain overnight and brought the temperature down to near a comfortable level. After the short drive to the Katherine Gorge National Park we began our three hour hike. About half of the group opted for the...

Litchfield and Kakadoodle-do

Returning to Australia was both amazing and shocking. We walked out of the airport to a perfect tropical temperature, no sweltering heat but a great breeze and pleasing aroma. Plus, not one person was in our face trying to sell us a ride or lodging or anything else for that matter. The ease...

Kakadu & Litchfield Parks - Awesome!

Another retrospective... We arrived in Darwin, Australia intent on visiting world-famous Kakadu National Park and perhaps other surrounding parks. We hit an immediate hiccup in that it was a school holiday at the time and many Australians were on the road making a similar circuit as we were....

Travel Evolution - Darwin NT

Got to Darwin late on Wednesday night (25th July) and am staying at the backpackers (Melaleuca on Mitchell). Not bad for a backpackers - not the best I have stayed at but the chicks I am sharing with are really cool. Checked out the Darwin show with some pig racing, spear throwing and also...

World heritage site

We left Darwin and headed straight for Kakadu National Park. We stopped at Humpty Doo because with a name like that you have to say that you have been there. We stopped at Aurora, Kakadu for the night and we had dingoes and wallabies around our truck. During the night the dingoes were wailing...
