Hello everybody! We have been up in Darwin. I have now got Beyond the Grave and 1 of Card Pack 2: Branch vs. Branch. We have been to the Mindil Markets.....twice!! We had dinner on the beach. We went to a recreation centre where there was this big waterpark! We had loads of fun. We drove go-karts after. They were fun. The next day we had a look at the city centre of Darwin. There are only 3 main streets, it is very small compared to Sydney! We had dinner at a restaurant where we could sit down on a big cushion and have dinner at a bench that is very close to the ground. Then we went back. The next day we left Darwin to go to Kakadu National Park. We stayed at an actual town in the national park. It is called Jabiru. We had a look at lots of intresting aboriginal art on the rocks. We went on a cruise that we had to wake up at 5:30 NT time for (that is 6:00 eastern standard time). We went along South Alligator river. That evening we went with Justin, Daniel, Ryan, Rob and Lee to a place called Ubirr where we went up to a lookout to watch the sunset. This was our last night together before they split up with us. So that night we got to have a late swim in the pool (because we were having dinner at a restuarant in the caravan park that is in the pool area. We had fish and wedges. Then we watch a movie then a few Spongebob episodes (Justin and I watched Star Wars Robot Chicken while Daniel, Ryan and Jared watched Garfield Funfest, then Justin and I watched Spongebob on our own). The next day we had to say a sad goodbye and say "See you in September" (they are coming to our place when they approach Sydney on their way down the east coast). We are heading down the middle of Australia while they are heding into Queensland and going down the coast. We were going to stay at Katherine (again!) but we couldn't get in. So right now we are staying at a place called Mataranka.
See ya when I see ya,
Callum
