Yes, after an enjoyable 5 months we made it across the border into the Northern Territory (NT). A quick free camp last night not far from Victoria River and then we travelled up to Katherine this morning.

Already we have noticed a difference, particularly buying alcohol. I had to go thru 3 security checks, including a policewoman standing in the store just to buy a bottle of Bundy. The only thing I didn’t have to tell them was my underwear size.

Only in Katherine for a couple of days, will be doing the Katherine Gorge trip tomorrow before heading north again on Wednesday. Called into the Information centre and they had an interesting rug on the floor (see photo below). We’ll have to be on our mettle here in the NT, what with alcohol security and Croc warnings everywhere, should be an interesting few weeks in the NT.
