Edith Falls and Katherine (Tindal)

After spending a great night been entertained by Check & Bron, emptying the fridge and sleeping in Air Con (great change) we got up at an reasonable hour, well after our hosts had left for work.

Spent the morning sitting around for a few hours and watching the first session of the Adelaide test we decided we should get out and do something........in the hottest part of the day.

Packed up Trev and headed for Edith Falls, about 65 kms north of Katherine. Temp was pushing 45 but why not do a walk. After climbing the ridge we came down upon the famous Edith Falls, there had been some good rain in the last week so the falls were flowing well.

Managed to get a couple of good snaps and have a quick swim. From here we walked the rest of the track up via the lookout where you could get a good view both up and down the gorge.

The walk was well worth it but next time maybe we should not do it in the middle of the day.
We headed back to Katherine (Tindal) and another night of great hospitality (and airconed bed) not before stopping to pick up more supplies from the bottlo. Made the mistake of getting there at 2.30pm, which happened to coincide with the rush hour for the local inhabitants as you can only buy grog after 2.30 and not on Sundays.

Managed to contribute to the 12million cans of beer that are consumed in Katherine every year and had a great night. Even managed to get some casting lessons from Check and the kids before heading further north in search of barra.
