Another
longer driving day today from Lake Argyle to Katherine, with just a couple
roadhouse stops along the way.
Our email address is gusrox30@gmail.com.
Feel free to drop a note and say hello anytime!
We
got up at sunrise to get a good start on the day. |
Rest
stop at Victoria River Roadhouse. |
It
wasnt long before we left Western Australia behind. We also changed
time zones going into the Northern Territory, 1 1/2 hours ahead! Were
wondering how that came about? |
There
are some fun signs along the highways. This is a reminder to prevent
bushfires. |
Crossing
the Victoria River near the roadhouse. |
We
followed a loaded triple, double decker cattle truck for a while. Were
quite happy to stay back and not try and pass. The speed limit in the
Northern Territory is 130km, but the GPS in the van told us not to exceed
110km. No problem, thats plenty fast! |
We
saw signs for the black spot project and wondered that they were. Its
a program aimed at reducing road crash injuries and fatalities by repairing
high incident road sections. Black spot refers to asphalt repair.. |
This
wallaby greeted us in the caravan park tonight at Nitmiluk National
Park outside of Katherine. |
This
lizard was posing for us as we wandered around Nitmiluk National Park.
He was frilled not grilled. |
This
is the Katherine River. Were going on a cruise to see the gorges
tomorrow. |
