Day 141: Howard Springs - Darwin

Darwin is quite small, and we haven't had a good look at it yet. Our first priority when we arrived was (apart from the yellow light bulb) to get the flat tyre replaced. We spent a good hour waiting at the only place that we could find to do Cooper tyres.

We had and early lunch at Buzz Cafe in Cullen Bay and chuckled to ourselves when a guy from another table opened a fake door to reveal a painting of a person sitting on the toilet, he got a bit of a fright. Also, according to Oly, in the men's toilet (the real ones) the urinal is a one way mirror so you can see everyone in the restaurant while you are urinating. I guess you could even aim for someone's drink...

Will have to go back and get some pictures!

We are staying overnight at a friend of Oly's family as tomorrow night (actually 1:30AM on Wednesday) we are once again jetting off... this time to the big smoke.

Did I mention it is Darwins DRY season and it won't rain for another 3 months. Well you guessed it, we brought the rain with us...

it didn't rain for 3 months in Robourne when your dad and I lived there, but when the cyclone season came we were flooded. Everyone danced in the rain!
