The Northern Territory

Amazing scenery, crocodiles, snakes, birds, waterfalls, bushwalks.....An amazing place and a great time to visit is just now in the Australian winter, the Top End's Dry season (still around 30°C).  We were even lucky enough to see Katherine show with rodeo as main atraction. Men and women really know how to ride horses around here. As we are sitting at the Darwin airport finishing our last Tim-Tams (the winning flavor is dark chocolate, Sarah we tried them all J), we think of our time here and how we will miss the mozzies (not really),  brekkys, thongs, lollies...but no worries we will be back J 

Aboriginal culture is very present in the Territory
