Day 2 began at 5am and a bumpy 2 hour drive along dirt tracks and through rivers (I prayed to the god of 4 wheel driving) to the first stop at Twin Falls gorge. Accessible only by boat and a short walk, it is one of the few waterfalls in Kakadu that flows all year round (we are coming to the end of the dry season and the last rain was in April). Was absolutely breathtaking and completely unspoiled, definately a piece of paradise. Was then onto Jim Jim falls for more breathtaking scenery and a swim at the base of the falls (currently down to a trickle - only flows during the wet season).
