May 14, 2008: Big Australia
Wednesday – we are in Darwin and enjoying a relatively quiet day of walking and riding around this nice city. The weather is very warm, so our activities have been limited to short walks and a ride on the local tour bus. We saw much of the city and local surrounds. It is a very modern city, basically all new since 1974 when cyclone Tracey roared through and destroyed most of what existed then. Tomorrow we head to Melbourne, we don’t think that we will do much more sightseeing, but will spend our time visiting with our friends from our earlier time in the Land of Oz. We thought that we would post a few photos of the BIG THINGS that we have seen throughout our travels. Our trip has certainly revealed to us the huge size of this country, the large and warm hearts of so many people that we have met along the way and the enormous set of memories that we have made while on this adventure. Oh yea, who can forget the gigantic VISA bill we will have. Cheers!
