Kakadu National Park

Got to know Ann a bit more and we spent the next couple of days doing the ‘single gals doing it together’ thing. Joined her, on the second tour. This time we didn’t really get what we expected. Big coach, no backpackers, bloody boring commentary, in coach sound effects and our company was basically made up of British Tourists dithering and fussing over flies, heat, water bottles and “When’s lunch”. Just not the kind of thing we were promised. Apparently its wet season, so the wildlife wasn’t gonna be up to much either (another detail the receptionist failed to mention). However we entertained ourselves by taking the piss out of everything and getting stuck into the complimentary red wine and cheese at the end.

Oh and for some strange reason, one of the (slightly excitable) passengers, thought we were sisters. Obviously the German and Welsh accents sound more simular than I thought...
