Leisurely departure was my fault for not adequately reading the map. We went to Katherine to the supermarket and found somewhere to wash car and caravan, both of which sorely needed it by then. Could not recognise them.
Kakadu quite a bit further and decided to go to Gunlom Falls for first night. This unfortunately was about 60km down an unsealed road which we took really slow as we didn’t want to dirty everything again. Finally arrived at a really busy campsite at about 5pm.
Found somewhere to park, but Edwina noticed caravan tyre flat so then got my first experience of changing a caravan tyre, which was relatively straightforward thankfully, but meant a late dinner, but kids were happy as we still managed a fire.

Next morning we trekked up the path alongside the waterfall to a fantastic swimming spot at the top of the escarpment. It was just like a natural infinity pool and really beautiful.






Fascinating at the top end and great to see you are enjoying every minute of it. You’ve got plenty of beautiful photos to choose from which would be good for poster size. Robbie looks like he’s grown quite a bit!!
