Kakadu is obviously well known for Aboriginal rock art that is thousands of years old. The two best locations are Nourlangie & Ubirr. We visited both. Ubirr is the most spectacular. It also has a great lookout after a short rock climb that gives you 360 degree views of the surrounding area- quite spectacular. Cahills Crossing is near Ubirr. It is the border between Kakadu and Arnhem Land. When the tide changes the crocs come out to catch the fish that jump over the crossing. It's fun to watch the crocs fishing for their lunch.

For the past 10 days we have been travelling with a lovely family from Melbourne. After only a short time we have become great friends
and we will miss them on the rest of our journey (they have longer on the road
than us so are travelling slower- lucky things!) Their kids are similar in age
to ours and we have enjoyed hanging around the pool together after a day
sightseeing and enjoying a quiet beverage or two (or three, four etc) in the
evenings. Thanks Ben & Deirdre- stay in touch and we’ll see you one day
soon. You are welcome to visit us in Sydney anytime. Sophia also says she hopes Cleo's foot is better.
