Darwin 4.7.12

It was hard to leave our lovely campsite at the springs but had to be in Darwin to fly out the next night. We arrived at Lib and Eric's house and were greeted by their son Luke and his wife of two months Talia. They gave us free reign of the house and were happy to have our car and van parked under the carport while we went to Singapore to visit the Smiths. We had dinner at the Trailer Boat Club and watched the magnificent sunset over the beach with the rest of our fellow travelers plus Ken' s brother Mark and Paul and Kerry's son Grahame who had flown to Darwin from Hong Kong where he lives, to visit them.

We watched the State of Origin and wonder why we bother when a three man strip of the ball goes unnoticed and results in a try for Qld!!!!

Next day we had very short, very overdue haircuts, packed for Singapore and headed for the airport.
