But before we parted, we did one last thing together, and that was to go to see the Edith Falls, a waterfall area about 60km north of Katherine. And it was a nice walk, all of about 100 metres from the car.
From there, I hopped back into the car, alone, and headed towards Kakadu. With a full day's plans, I drove into Kakadu, and did the following:
Gunlom Gorge, a lovely waterfall/pool, where even though you're warned not to go in due to Crocs, lots of people were still swimming in the water. (not me that is).
I then attempted to go to Maguk, but once I found the road turning to soft sand, I turned around quickly.
I then headed to Yellow Water, a lovely lake/lagoon, with a fantastic boardwalk to stroll along. It's about now that I should tell you that the temperature was 37 degrees, and about 99% humidity. So much for dry season.
I then headed to Nourangie Rock, one of the two main areas I believe in Kakadu, as it's a lovely walk along-side rock that's been painted 7000 years ago. I myself think someone just goes along each day with chalk and touches it up.
From there I headed to the Aurora resort, where I spent the night, doing laundry and being chased/chasing cane toads. Gotta love the life.
