Darwin 1





Darwin was a lot of fun. We caught up with Ilsa and Annie (who were holidaying in the Top End), and also with Louise whom we had met in Kalbarri. We visited the oil storage tunnels from World War 2 and spent some time at the new Waterfront area, which has been redeveloped to provide the locals with an easy-access city beach. (The centre of the city is less than 5 minutes walk away.) Right next door to that is a wave pool, popular with children of all ages. We went to the 'deckchair cinema' one evening and saw 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' - excellent film! The last day we took a boat trip across the harbour to Mandorah, returning to Cullen Bay for a delicious mussels and barramundi lunch on the wharf.
