March 19, 2012 Mon Day 39 Darwin

Often as we sit outside for morning coffee, we seem to get visitors. Sacred Ibis. 

Marcel and Peter went to a Military Museum after they dropped us off  at a shopping mall.
Picture of the East Point where the guys were.  

Peter was standing behind him. 

Love his big eyes.
Immy and I spent 2.5 hrs shopping, but didn't buy anything.  

Combining pool time with a nap.  Multi tasking.
No rain all day.  That's first since we arrived in Darwin  



Sharing my grilled cheese sandwich. 

One last look to make sure it's all gone.
In the evening we were going to go on a amphibious sunset vessel.
Also cancelled from all the rain. 

Marcel went to the dunnies at night, and when he came back, this little guy was waiting for him.
Actually, he's not that little.  Still don't know what it is. 
 The lady in the office said they are possums!!  We just call them rats.   


Marcel is stopping him from going into the trailer.  


Peter's reading area when we can't sit outside anymore, and before we play our nightly euchre.
There are a million, billion, zillion, trillion flies in Australia.  And twice as many ants.

Rec'd a wonderful email from Chrissy and Ian inviting us to stay with them again when we get back to Sydney.  There's nothing we would rather do than to spend our last days with them.
We are so blessed to have them in our lives.  Love you guys.

  1. I love the picture of the little owl! Boy the animals are people-friendly down there.
    It looks like a lovely camper.
    How on earth could two women go shopping for two and a half hours and buy nothing?!
    How did the fellows like their tour?
    I am glad you are going back to Chrissy and Ian's. They are looking forward to your company again. They now understand how we got so attached to our extended family.
    We love you and miss the four of you!

  2. Hey guys,

    Just checking in to see how you are! Not sure if you are checking your emails but if you are, we miss you! Your pictures are spectacular! Ian and I love to look at them, we check each day to see what's there and boy were we disappointed when you couldn't get online for quite a few days! But I see you are back now which is great!

    I checked your itinerary and you arrive back in Sydney on Friday March 30th? We just wanted to let you know that you are more than welcome to stay with us again. Even if you want to come down here on Friday, stay overnight, and then head down south, that's fine as well. You can stay one day, or all days! But I thought you might like a nice place to come on your first day back here and we could even make you some more hamburgers!!

    Also how is Chrissy the GPS going? I hope she has been steering you in the right direction!

    I can't believe you will be in Cairns in 3 more days, where has the time gone!

    Okay hopefully you will get this email and let me know how you are!

    Lots of love
    Chrissy and Ian xoxo
