Day 54 – Kakadu (Yellow Water, Gunlom)

Getting up early for the sunrise Yellow Water boat cruise wasn’t too difficult as it’s usually too hot to sleep in past 6am anyway, so we pulled in to the billabong area at 6.30 as the sun was rising through … Read More »

Day 53 – Kakadu (Nourlangie and Cahill’s Crossing)
