I genuinely cannot believe how fast 21 days can fly by!! It feels like a lifetime ago we were starting our west coast journey and already it’s coming to an end. I’ve had such a fantastic time and met so many more amazing people – definitely not ready for it to end!!
Today we headed for Edith Falls, a beautiful waterfall which I am luckily enough to be visiting for the second time. From memory the hike was a lot harder back in December with the added humidity! Today seemed more of a casual climb, although that did make it even harder to brave the cold water pool!!
After a relaxing morning at the waterfalls we were back on the road again to finish off our 7210km journey! 4210km from Perth to Broome and a further 3000km up to Darwin! Wow! This brings my time in Australia to a full circle in just over 13 months!
As amazing as this west coast journey has been it is very nice to be back in civilisation! As we pulled into Darwin centre we all wowed at the number of people and buildings around us and we tried to remember how to function as normal human beings!
We headed out the the sunset night markets down on Mindil Beach for a few treats! I had the most amazing jacket potato with garlic butter, bolognese and sour cream – such a treat after not being able to chose your own food for 21 days!! The night markets here were similar to that of Melbourne’s summer night markets but with slightly less variety on food (mostly Asian cuisine) – that being said they are definitely a must see if you’re in Darwin on a Thursday or Sunday night!! There’s such a feel good atmosphere down there with everyone enjoying themselves.
