Kakadu Part One

Monday, May 15, 2017
Kakadu/Cooinda, Northern Territory, Australia
Well we made it here about 1 pm on Monday May15th. So hot about 39c and very humid. The campsite looks great until the sun goes down. Then it's like mozzie city. Damn if those things don't hunt in packs. We thought we might play cards but after turning the light on and seeing the bugs.....NO WAY. This is the first year they have had a "Taste of Kakadu" here so Jen & I have tried basket weaving (a bracelet). We have eaten wallaby and some fish (not me) & Nat has had a go at throwing a spear. David spent a day and a half driving to Darwin. Bloody Mazda (more money). Coming home broke. Guess we gotta come back to work. 
A lot of Kakadu is still closed due to crocs but they just opened Gulom Falls so we drove back 120km to see it and it was stunning .
I will put some pics on here but we have just received an email saying Travelpod is closing 19th June 2017. Anyone using this site needs to log on and download all your blogs before then. Not sure what we will use when this site closes. Will have to try and find another blog site.
We have a boat tour booked and some more sightseeing so I will make this a 2 part blog.
Try to keep warm in sunny Adelaide.
