ok, i try again to tell you a bit about my last two weeks. lets hope it works!
so, 4th of april we left Perth, with around 20 people in a awd truck. mostly irish, english, germans and some others. even one norwegian girl…not often you meet them!
on our way to broome we have seen a lot of great things:
the pinnacles(mostly rocks sticking out of the sand) gorges,monkey mia with the dolphins there, many many gorges in Karijini nationalpark. what a great place that was. two whole days there. 2-4 gorges a day. walking down, partly steep, partly through water up to our knees(my bottom!), doing the spiderwalk(the gorge is that small that you climpb with arms and legs on the walls) and suddenly your standiing infront of this amazing little pool!! so what else is there to do than jump in!!
we were a funny group of really different people, but we did find it really hard to leave half of the goupe behind after 8 days. they would go back to perth, while we cept going to broome. stopping at eighty mile beach aso before we got to broome. a small town, with long beaches, worm and humid weather and coconuts!
oh before i forget! when we were in Exmouth we had one day to do what ever we wanted. a small group of us went on a whaleshark trip for the day. you know whalesharks? yep, it IS a shark. but it is also the biggest fish in the world. the biggest one seen was around 18 metres long. they are harmless, but big(so they can still hurt you if they want to) if you dont know what i am talking about, and you live in norway, go and check out the thor heyerdahl museum in oslo. they have one there!
anyway. we went on the boat, jumpt in the water, to get used to it, and snorkle a bit around, then we went out in deeper water again, while the little plain was looking for sharks for us. and it found two in the fist hour. but they always dissapeard into the deap before we were there. so the day went by, with a bit more snorkeling(amazing with all the fishes and corals and stuff!!) but in the end we got some!!!
two or three different ones. girls(they are smaller) young girls(even smaller) so we are talking about 3-4 metre! as the skipper were saying the younger they are, the more fun can it bee, for both, us and the shark.
it was just amazing to jump in the water. everyone is so exited. you dont see anything but the coulor blue, and suddenly there is this huge fish comming towards you!!….
WOW …. and i bet it thought just the same about us, cause it was just swimming around and around us….
the next time we jumpt in it weas another one. but it look pretty much the same.
God that was a cool day!!
(maybe i should swim with the killerwhales when i get home!!
hihih)
anyway, i had a grerat time on the trip. it was very different than the outback trip, but good!
some hours ago i landed here in Darwin. its not really a big big city, but it looks nice. its dark now, but still warm.
and now a bit about my plans for the next week. I have already booked a flight to cairns on the 23rd of april. so im gonna be here a week. on friday i do a one day trip to litchfield NP, and on saturday a three day trip to kakadu NP.
soo…tomorrow i take a little look around here and…well…lets take the rest a bit later.
i hope this made it a bit clearer for all of you. if you have any questions, just ask or leave me a message or something! allways fun!
oh and yes, im in crocodile-country now! so thingsa that want to eat me: shark, crocodile, spider, snakes, jellyfish…aso. things that actually IS eating me: mossies!!
