Paradise

Earlier this week spent a few days in the spectacular Kakadu and Litchfield national parks. Kakadu is world heritage listed for both cultural and natural heritage and has been home to the aboriginal people for at least 50,000 years. Quite spacious at 20,000 square kilometres too so could only see a tiny fraction of it.

First stop was a boat trip on the Mary river for some croc spotting then was onto Maguk for some monsoon forest type walking followed by a swim in the crystal clear plunge pool at the base of the waterfall (one of the few croc free places to swim in Kakadu and as featured in Crocodile Dundee!) Then went to the yellow water wetlands for sunset.
