Damn, it’s October already and it looks like I’ll be staying in Darwin for a few months as the expenses are mounting up. I need a new radiator for the Troopy and I’ll probably have to pay the ATO income tax for last year. I should really look into getting the dole while I travel ;)

Yesterday we ended up a Victoria River Roadhouse after going through Timber Creek and parts of Gregory National Park. The is alot of history around the exploration, development and pasturalisation of the region. The roadhouse was a good place to camp and it provided a much needed shower and water refill.

Things seem to be cheaper here in the NT than in WA, camping last night was $7.50ea, fuel in Katherine was $1.38/L and the caravan park tonight was $12.50ea. Hopefully things continue on this trend as it will mean less time in Darwin.

Tomorrow’s TODO list includes visiting Katherine Gorge and thats about it. We will see a few other sights over the next few days and on the way up to Darwin as we are spending 2 nights in Katherine.
