Day 37: Judbarra NP to Kununurra
Wednesday 10th August 2022 We had a blissfully cool night – at some point I even had to get up, turn off the fan and unpack a doona! 😆 Otis and I headed down to the boat ramp for a morning walk and spotted a decent sized crocodile off the boat ramp, justifying my paranoia…

Day 34: Nitmiluk NP
Sunday 7th August That was our hottest night camping by far! The night stayed hot and still until the early hours of the morning when it cooled down a little. The big disadvantage of being in a tent is that after a hot day, the ground stays hot, and you are effectively lying on an…

Day 33: Darwin to Nitmiluk NP
Saturday 6th August 2022 We accidentally slept in till 8 this morning – the apartments have really bright lights outside the door that are on all night, so we had to close the blinds really well, but then you don’t know when it’s morning! Anyway we went straight into packing up to leave, amidst breakfast…

Day 29: Jabiru
Tuesday 2nd August 2022 This morning Richie and Andrew had a fishing charter booked on the East Alligator River, so they were up and off early, before sunrise again. I was hoping for a sleep-in but Bonnie woke at the same time so we had another early start. Tegan and I were both feeling tired…
We are on holiday!
