We arrived at our first campsite in Kakadu National Park at
a place called Gunlom Falls. After setting up in the late afternoon heat (36
degrees) we strolled to the falls for a swim.
The next day we travelled to set up camp near Jim Jim Falls
and Twin Falls and were greeted by a dingo. Later that evening he attacked our
garbage bag – I got the kids to run decoy while I cleaned up the mess.
The view from our campsite in the morning.
From a distance you can see the escarpment that shadowed our
campsite to the East.
Travelling to Twin Falls we had to float the Prado through
Jim Jim Creek. J walked the croc infested water first as it is good practice to
check to depth of water before submitting your vehicle to any unfamiliar
crossings.

Breath taking sunset at Ubir (top left corner of Kakadu
bordering Ahnam Land).
Just before leaving Kakadu we stopped at this wetland area
(Alligator River?) to do some bird
watching – we weren’t disappointed.
