I had some solo time today and met Sue and Mark in the afternoon at Mindil markets where we had dinner and watched the sunset. I did a pleasant bush walk at Lee point and tested out my new lens on birds & sunset at Mindil Beach. V ery pleased with the lens.

DARWIN
Three weeks exactly to reach Darwin, quickest time I can remember. Out of Kakadu, camped one night creek side at Robin falls and a morning spent at Adelaide River war cemetery, where the victims of the bombing of Darwin are buried. The rest of the story is told in pictures. I have purchased a new and longer lens for my camera which I have to get used to.
I will also put the link to my latest drone video in this post, of the crocodiles at Cahill crossing, Kakadu.

Fuel storage, Darwin. They didn't learn much from the war time bombing.
They are not very good at parking in Darwin.
Some memories.
Better times in the same location.
Cycling into town, 30klm return.
First night in Darwin, met up again with Dean & Tony for dinner at the pub.
