Day 60 – A pretty uneventful day in the NT

The sunrise was quite spectacular this morning, my little morning walk buddy Jazzy was ready as always to go and explore. I love all the giant fig trees around here, they are so impressive!

This morning I had quite a few back to back meetings, so we packed up as much as we could before I started and then Chris took the girls to explore the station. There were farm animals, a playground and a pool, but the girls are still getting better so we managed to negotiate no pool with them.

Poor Izzy managed to get an injury on the monkey bars and has the worst bruise/bump on her shins from it. The hobbling that day was real!

We left Mt Bundy and started heading towards Darwin and the big stretch of highway driving was a welcome stint! It was actually quite unusual to see a traffic light for the first time in a long time…

As we approached the city, the girls saw the Golden Arches and the Maccas happy meals called to them. They actually asked about McDonald’s a few thousand kilometres ago and we giggled to ourselves trying to explain that no, there wouldn’t be any in the remote parts of Australia. So it was a cheap win for Chris and I today – so easily pleased 😂

After that there was a quick stop at Supercheap, Kmart and pharmacy for supplies before we headed to camp. Everyone was quite tired from the adventurous past few days. The afternoon went by fast as we set up and quickly caught up on som work & last minute homework (holidays here we come!).
