We camped in Katherine Gorge last night at a beautiful campground, complete with running hot and cold water, and a gorgeous pool surrounded by palms. After a swim we hiked to the top of the gorge for sunset, which was amazing. On the hike down, we came across the many bats that had now left the trees in which they were "hanging" out, and were swarming the skies - amazing! Then we cooked up some supper, and sat around in the tropical warm air of the top end. The following morning we got up and drove for a bit then took a detour and a short hike to Robin Falls where we saw two king brown deadly snakes just a few feet away from our ankles...quick photos before moving on. We finally arrived in Darwin about 2:30pm and I dropped the boys off downtown to find their accommodation, and I headed out to find my friend R's house in Fannie Bay, which is a beautiful area of Darwin. We hung out, went for a drive, pizza and then the gorgeous sunset Darwin is so famous for before coming back to her place to catch up. Tomorrow the crocodile park!
