30th August, Darwin.

So got up today, had quite a good sleep. and didn't any any "strange" noises !!!!!

had a walk round darwin again today. went and located the beach right next to my hostel. nothing great not much sand and lots of stones. so didn't stay there

at all.

Found a nice park, which is right by the "beach". see photo.

Went and booked some tours today, which took most of the daylight to be honest. there are lots to choose from and the actually ones i wanted were not available. as i wanted it for tomorrow and i am not staying round darwin any longer.

So i booked a tour tomorrow for Litchfield National park and jumping crocodiles. i actually wanted to go to katherine gorge. but nevermind. at least i see some outback/park.

Next i went a book a train for alice springs and i leave on saturday and arrive sunday. I hang around for a day and go on a tour of Ayer rock and uluru which is a 3 day trip, i get to camp out sleep under the stairs and cook on an open fire. that should be good can't wait for that. then back to alice springs. then i think from alice springs i will book a 3 day bus ride to cairns. So don't expect to much to br written in the next week or so, i will do my best.

So rest of today i tried to get a sun lounger by the pool, but that proved harder then i thought, i could get one but in the shade. whats the point.

So i went to the park i found earlier (pictured) above and chilled out, got some much needed sun. need to top up the tan, and dam it is hot in darwin. i feel like a.... no i won't go there. I feel hot.

stayed there for a bit, then back to the pool for a dip to refresh myself. This time i managed to get a chair up stairs on the roof. which wasn't too bad, just bloody hot.

Again just chilled in my room for a bit, read me book. actually nearly finished. and its still pretty good.

nothing really exciting today. however tomorrow should be good and the next day week should be even better.
