So we have left the peace of Katherine and here we sit in muggy soggy Darwin. Even though it is officially 'the dry', it is still very humid here, even the locals say it is not right. Oh well, it is only a week and I am sure we have survived worse......some where!
Forgot to tell about the excitement back at the last camp. The police caught one of the Territory's "most wanted" escapees hiding out in a cabin in our park. He was wanted for sex crimes, drug crimes and damage to property crimes. Someone asked Himself if we had been frightened and he said, hell no, we had 7 of the Territory's finest in flak jackets and armed to the teeth around us, no problems there! Day one six officers arrived in two paddy wagons and a pursuit car and spent an hour on site chatting to people and showing around photos. Then that night an extra caravan pulled in and positioned itself so that the occupants could see a certain location in the park. Then the next day an unmarked car arrived and a locksmith came and then a tow truck came and eventually hours later they all left but the police continued to patrol the park off and on during the next few days. We think they were just making sure the escapees friends were moving on as instructed.
