Day 8 and 9 Katherine to Douglas-Daly

Well Saturday was Mummy's Birthday and we spent the morning at Katherine Gorge going for a walk to a Look Out! It was super steep in parts and we all needed a drinks break at the top. The view was amazing! You aren't allowed to swim in the water here as there are lots of crocodiles that might eat YOU!!! Daddy had a special carrier that went on his back and he gave Chloe a ride while we all walked. She loved being up nice and high! We got to have an iceblock at the cafe back at the bottom - oh so nice.







That afternoon we went to the Katherine Hot Springs. They are a natural spring and are about 32degrees all year round. It was lots of fun there - us 3 kids had lots of fun swimming around in the water.


We went out for tea to celebrate Mum's Birthday at the Bistro at the Caravan Park.

Today we packed up again and headed for our next destination, a short drive of only 200kms. We are at the Douglas-Daly Tourist Park on the Douglas River. It’s a great park – lots of bush and dirt and places for us to run and ride our scooters. We’ve met some kids here too and they watched a movie with us after tea tonight.

This afternoon we went to the Water Hole where we had a swim on the sandy beach edge. It was very cold at the start but that didn’t stop us from getting in and getting wet and having lots of fun.

Tomorrow we go to a gorge called Umbrawarra Gorge – its about an hr away and we will get to go for another swim there too.

Mummy and Daddy love our caravan….we keep hearing Mummy say “Oh Michael…I’m SO glad we got the van – its SO nice!” We think its pretty special too.
