Alice to Darwin.

Up early again this time for the Alice To Darwin trip. Lots more driving ahead. Went through a place called wycliffe well, which as the most UFO sightings in Australia. The pub/petrol station there is very strange. After the strange pub went to the devils marbles, lumps of round sandstone made by errosion of something bigger (australians do like there rocks). Then more driving. Drove to a cattle station called Banka Banka for the first night. Somebody found a brown snake in their tent, they didn't sleep very well that night. I checked my sleeping bag very carefully.
Next morning ont he road again. Drove to somekind of mound, walked up it, got scratched by a lot spinifex grass and came down it again. Stopped at the Daly Walters pub. A fairly strange pub in the middle of the outback. Went to see the tree that Hon McDouall Stuart carved his initial on on his succesfull journey from Adelaide to Darwin and back again (it took thre attempts). Then went to Matteranka hot springs and swam in some nice warm water. Stayed outside Katherine for the night.
Went canoing on Kathernine gorge in the mormning, which was fun dragging the canoe over klots of rocks to get into different sections of the gorge, lots more swimming. From kathering headed up past adelaide river, where we saw one of the stars of Crocodile Dundee (charlie the water buffalo, stuffed I might add). Arrived in the Darwin in the evening.
