Hi everyone. We safely arrived in Darwin in the early hours of yesterday morning. It was already 25 degrees (hotter than the hottest day we have had since being in Phillip Island). Our first thought when we walked out of the hotel the next morning was that it reminded us a lot of Cloncurry and Normanton. When they told us to wind back our watches 1/2 an hour on the plane the man in front of us said and about 30 years. And he's probably right. It's similar to Qld in the 1970's.
FOR THOSE PEOPLE HAVING TROUBLE FINDING OUR ITINERY GO TO THE BLOG ARCHIVE ON THE RIGHT AND GO TO AUGUST. IT IS IN THE SECOND ENTRY - THE LONG ONE.
Did a lot of walking yesterday and spent the evening at the Mingil Beach Markets and watched the sunset sitting on the beach. Got a hire car today and have been driving around. Darwin is very spread out but has heaps of facilities and lots to see and do.
Having a great time. Head off to Singapore tonight (well tomorrow morning really).

Wishing you a safe trip. Micky says hi to Pat!!! We are having a great time and fellowship with Karen's parents and the Henty AOG Church people. Pray that your next leg will get you there safe.
Ahh so this is where all the "parents" hang out when they're away! I should have known!
Glad you're safely in Singapore - thanks for the text message.
Would be nice to feel warm - today is supposed to get to 20. I had a magpie swoop me when I was walking to school today.
Anyway, stay safe and enjoy yourselves. (Both families.)
