Took a drive around town and found the lovely facilities that the residents fundraised till the cows came home to put in. They built a great sporting facilities with fully fenced basketball/tennis courts, fully covered sports ground, cricket pitch and full toilet and shower blocks. These were now available to the public to use as a caravan park for a donation till they choose a site for a caravan park site in town and build it.
Met a nice couple of farmers from SA who were staying there and really enjoying having the place to themselves. He is turning 75 on Monday so they were planning to spend some time there fishing and relaxing and enjoying the warm weather.
Dropped in at Darwin Dam on the way back.

We then headed back to look after the girls back at Katherine. They were a hoot. They were really happy to see us. I think they slept the night under the van.
