Kakadu is a huge National park just East of Darwin. It is a beautiful place with a real sense of the aboriginal spirit. We spent the first evening watching the sunset over the wetlands. It was really magical and even the kids said it was the best thing they had seen so far. I attach pictures but it just doesn’t do it justice. We also saw some great aboriginal rock art accompanied with a talk by the local ranger. On the following day we did a boat trip on the Yellow River. Again it was amazing. Barry I wish you were with us on this trip. The birdlife was incredible. We were taking pictures for two hours. You would have loved it. The highlights were the Jesus birds appearing to walk on water and the huge brolgas, showing off by doing this mad dance in front of their mate. Jack loved the crocodiles. One caught a turtle while we were watching. The saltwater crocs are huge…and dangerous. Most of the waterways in Kadaku are out of bounds for tourists. There are a few swimming holes though that are perfect for cooling off. One of the attached pictures shows on of these in Gunlom (one of our campsites in Kakadu). You may recognise this as it was featured in Crocodile Dundee. Where there is such beauty though, there is also misery…the mossies were awful and the heat of the sun is so intense, almost unbearable. The attached pics are all of places in Kakadu. Dot, I’ve even attached one of me to prove I am really here!!
