Today we had the short trip from Litchfield NP to Darwin but we did have a slight diversion for morning tea at Humpty Doo Hotel, (don’t you love the name). Humpty Doo is about 7 K’s off the Stuart Hwy, leading you to Kakadu NP, which we will not be going too on this trip. Humpty Doo is only a short trip out from Darwin’s CBD and about 30 K’s from our Darwin destination, Robbie Robbins Reserve.

After setting up we headed into the CBD for a quick look around and a visit to the information centre. Once again the indigenous population were in full force with yelling and screaming at one another, irrespective of where they were or who is around them. The locals are used to it but we are still troubled by it. Then it was off for a late lunch at Cullen Bay, one of my favourite spots in Darwin. We have 5 days in Darwin so we are looking forward to a number of activities planned. For Andrew and I, golf sits about number 1!
Great to see & read about Darwin & Lichfield again – memory lane for me. You never get used to the plight of local indigenous – I hated the way I became a ‘local’ by just looking through them. When I first arrived for work I was called another “do gooda” from down south!
Still, you have blue skies & warmer temperatures then down here.
