Day 31 - 33: June 16th - 18th







Day 31 - June 16th
This morning we left early at 6.30am to travel to Darwin. When we arrived at Darwin we got our Winnebago motorhome serviced so for the rest of the day we had to use our car. We into the city and had McDonalds for breakfast and after breaky we looked at some shops and then went to the Wave Pool, It was massive, and it was like being at a real beach. At the wave pool we went boogyboarding and when they switched off the waves for 10 minutes we relaxed on the floating donuts. After 4 hours at the wave pool we went back to pick up our motorhome then stayed at the Hidden Valley Tourist Park where we are staying a week. Before dinner we went to a Crocodile display talk and we got to hold a baby freshwater crocodile. (The baby crocodile didnt have a name so we voted to call it Nigel which Dad suggested. Total kilometres: 5096!

Day 32 - June 17th



Today in the morning we went to Crocodylus park, where we didnt just see a lot of crocodiles, we saw Cassowaries, Lions, Turtles, a Tiger, Emus, Ostriches and snakes. After we came back from Crocodylus Park we rode to the Hidden Valley racetrack and saw the V8 truck transporters. At 5 o'clock saw the V8 driver signing near SkyCity Casino, and got about 12 autographs. After we got the autographs we went to the market and I bought some new sunglasses. and me and Adam both got a paint tattoo.

Day 33 - June 18th
Today we went to the V8 Supercar racetrack to see their Friday practice session, there was also touring cars, old HQ's and the V8 utes. After we saw the practice session we went back to the tourist park and had a swim. It is very hot up here - it is about 32 degrees every day (and it's winter!).
