NT..........

This will be in reverse as all the pics came in reverse...........

Just got to go to the Northern Territory (NT) to see my son and his family.............

The last night we had to kill hours to get a red eye flight back to Sydney.............

Departs Darwin the very early hours of the morning............

Darwin night lights............

Our dinner view..............

Enjoyed the sunset while waiting for our dinner booking............

You don't swim in the water in the NT........mostly crocodiles are in the water.........

I was too slow to capture a Freshwater croc jump off this log...............

beautiful falls that don't get a lot of tourists..............there was someone on the rocks here.............there is no way I would swim in this water...........there is a huge croc a few kms up stream that would snap you up before you could blink..............

my boy is great at finding beautiful spots to show me.............blooming hard work walking back up the sand on the steep bank here but I made it...........Daly River.............

Anyone want to open the gate?????

 I definitely wasn't................

Its a Golden Tree Snake............This was the biggest one my boy has seen.................

heaps of pandanas near the water ways up there...............

Was so excited to see a buffalo in the wild............also dingo and a croc.........

Got to go to Katherine Gorge again...............We saw it from the air a couple years ago............This time we did it from the water................It is such an awesome spot...............

We did two gorges and had to do about a 400metre walk between the boats to continue up the second gorge..............definitely worth going...........

there w a few fires on the side of the road in our travels...........this one was crackling well when we headed to Katherine in the dark............

There are heaps of sections along the highway that have been burnt.......

a huge snake skin...........would not like to run into this snake..........probably a python but I don't really know..........

Helped move some cows...............

perfectly still morning on the Douglas River.............

it was a bit cold over night while we were up there........there was a bit of steam coming off the river one morning................

mirror mirror on the wall.............

Sunrise walk.............

a rock ledge across the Douglas River...........would be able to walk all the way across I think but I big croc lives in the deep water here so definitely not testing it out....................

cows at a waterhole............

wide open roads............speed limit 130km/hr............

One leg of our flight up was on sunset and I don't remember flying at this time of the day...........

so pretty above the clouds............

And that brings me to the end of the trip................or in the case of the photos to the start..........

Had a great time..........lots of time with the boys..........

poking around checking out the property and surrounds........

beautiful warm weather during the day..........bit fresh over night but nothing like home.......

didn't scare anyone away with the lily white legs.............

I'll be back sooner next time.........didn't realise how long it had been since my last post until yesterday..........

Catch you later...........
