Wink The forgotten State

While I was sat in the pub all weekend in England, my girlfriend was exploring the NT.

She lives in Darwin and sent me a few pics after a trip to an aboriginal community. I'm jealous.....

Just 1 more - I've got quite a few more, but I wont bore you.

Just dont see many pics on here from the NT, and its a shame cos its beautiful, especially as the dry season starts apparently.

Dont get many from the NT on here, and it can be gorgeous!!

I'll put a couple more from this last trip of my girlfriends, and try get a few of when I went to Kakadu some other time.

Ok 1 more - just to show how wet it was.

They got turned back from the 1st attempt to cross the river cos it was too flooded, and they'd just pulled a big saltie out. Ended up with 5 of them crashin in a little room of a pub in the middle of nowhere!! Tops!!

(I wont put the snake pic on cos I know not everyones a fan )
