Visited the Darwin Museum & Art Gallery today. They have some interesting exhibitions about the devastating 1974 cyclone "Tracy", WW2 events and local stories like the one about the 6m long crocodile "Sweetheart" which terrorized the community in the 70's before it ended up here, stuffed on display. Other exhibitions include Aboriginal art and displays of Northern Territory's fauna.
