Kakadu Tour |
|
|
|
A selection of pictures from our 3 day tour of Kakadu National Park in Australia's Northern Territory. The nine of us met scary crocs, a couple of snakes, a frilled lizard and a very hairy tour guide! |

The tour started with the chance to see a 3 year old saltwater crocodile up close, and for each of us to hold him! |
|
A boat trip up the Adelaide River to see larger 'salties' in the wild. |

Our tour guide, Pat, who was every bit the hairy bushman he looked. We will remember his stories, (some of them taller than others), and his semi-submerged cigarrette smoking! |

|
A tough walk/climb in the heat rewarded us with some scenic views. |

There was plenty of swimming in rock pools and water holes. Here some intrepid explorers return from a tricky climb up to a higher pool and waterfall. |

We returned to the campsite one evening to find it surrounded by bushfires! |

The group, (except Karin who is taking the photo), Left to Right - back row - Andy, Pirkka, Gaby; Front row L-R - Jamie, Sam, Dave, Petra, Mette. It is hard to imagine a nicer group of people to be stuck in a Landcruiser with. |
