Day 9 - Howard Springs

Relaxed morning, got away about 9:30am into the Litchfield National Park. 

First stop Florence Falls..

Where I chose to brave the freezing waters of Litchfield NP just to provide a photo oppurtunity.

Next onto Tolmer Falls.. 

Great view but this area preserved as a natural habitat and thus no access.

Next stop Wangi Falls, reported as the pick of Litchfield National Park.

 And it looks spectacular, all set up for swimming access and large crowds.  Would have been great for a dip, even Tracey said she would have gone in here... But the Rangers have not cleared it for swimming after the wet season, apparently they survey where all the Saltwater crocodiles are and are not and open areas when they can.

Then lunch at the local cafe deep inside the Park, a burger and milkshake each (setting us back $46).

Decided not to stay in the park due no mobile coverage, still a little concerned about Tracey's parents and Kyle at home.  So we headed out of the park but stopped at Buleys Rockpools first to have a look... it was too busy earlier to find a park.

Lovely place and Tracey finally got wet, we sat around for a while before heading towards Darwin.

Staying at Howard Springs Holiday Park, mainly because I had seen their brochures almost every where we went - good advertising - the park was big and they had soooo many caravans etc crammed in..  But in our little motorhome once we shut up we are completely in our own environment.

Tomorrow we head into Darwin to swap our motorhome for a car and fixed address accomodation in Palmerston. 

Love you Kyle
Talk soon...
