Day 21 Saturday 29th . Our lowest point by far has been reached, maybe this blog post is best avoided by school or grandparents! . Grace woke up possessed by the devil and needless to say, after terrorising everyone, it didn't take long before she and James had serious words! . Old mate next door got up early as the campers left with his metal detector! Human seagull! . We got on the road with tears all round! . Drove 110kms to Katherine. We thought a c...

Beer was super cold, steaks were cooked "just right" unfortunately for Nicole Thai fish cakes were all sold out. Undies and bras adorned the rafte...

Day 18 Wednesday 26th Off to explore Devils Marbles! Another amazing geological feature of the centre of Oz! Extraordinary! . We wandered round trying not to get separated as according to Aboriginal Legend the people of the dreaming live in caves under the rocks and sometimes they come out to play but they might not let you go!
