Darwin.....stressful

Had a good night's sleep, the weather whilst humid wasn't all that bad.  The ceiling fan worked wonders.   But rain, clearly we are visitors, as the rain was significant in noise and wetness

And on it went....

LV B&B provided a continental breakfast, and some sort of grain with yogurt and black fly specks...told it is muesli and cheer seeds.   And it's good for you.    Checked out the local market, in the rain, went to the shops, in the rain, and back.     Everything here is MOIST, most MOIST.  For those who don't know what 95% humidity is like....they have a two section plastic bag they hang in wardrobes.  Top bit has water absorbing materiel and the bottom collects the water.....from the air....

Went to the waterfront and relaxed at the wave pool.....not very crowded, but wavy.

Which is about as much relaxing a we can cope with......too much to do and experience.

Relaxation over...and despite warnings and sunscreen and substantial cloud coverage two thirds of the part could have played rudolf...some say glowing......'told ya so'. But the author is not game to say such.

Walked seven or so ks for the day and had a pizza dinner in FANNIE BAY.....get the giggles out...Fannie Bay...fannie bay......

Back to the B&B and there was actually some blue sky and sunshine......packed for Elcho.  Limited to 13 kg and 4 kg carry on.   Most of the weight was food, as food on Elcho is very expensive.

Yes that is a salami in her carry on.....and glowing complexion.    

Bit like passengers in a northern Lao local bus, don't think there'll be any live chooks though.   Soon to take off into the clouds, Maningrida first to refuel then Elcho two hours all up.

Will rate LV B&B on TripAdvisor with a five star...good rates and proprietor was very accomodating.

See you all if we land...gotta go.....
