catch up..

I'm very slack with this blog.. feel free to comment if you want to inspire me along... Anyway, we are currently at El Questro Station. We arrived yesterday and have a few more days here before we head to Home Valley and along the Gibb. I expect that we will be out of range for a few weeks as we travel.. not that being in range has helped my blogging anyway..


I'll whip through a few shots of our experiences from Alice.. we are about to go on a sunset lookout tour so I think there will only be a few updates here.. 


Let's go..


Devils Marbles
Such a magical spot, we camped here overnight.

Adelaide River - Crocodiles
This is a very touristy thing to do but seeing the crocodiles up so close was something else. They certainly are large and fearsome. I'm glad we did this as it has put a very healthy respect and fear of these creatures with our family. 


Kakadu
We visited Ubirr where there is aboriginal rock art, this place had a magical feel to it. I think I understand why it was used to pass on the stories from generation to generation. 

Taking a boat cruise between Kakadu and Arnhem Land was special as the guide told many stories of the local cultures and rituals.  

Nawurlandja Lookout - again it is just an amazing view of Kakadu National Park, such beauty. 

Kubara walk - this was a walk that really tested everyone. It was hot and long, certainly not a walk that everyone will write home about.. but there were a few things to see and we had lunch in the cool of the water pools. 


Litchfield
- one of our favourite parks thus far. Cascade falls, Florence Falls and the whole park is spectacular. 



 


We are having a great time. Settling into "the van life"... 

The Gibb River Road awaits more of our exploration... out for now..
