Lovely Litchfield, NT


Air conditioning nightmare continues…!


Thursday 31st July Monday 4th August

Two days of driving without air conditioning certainly took its toll on our sanity! We stopped in Kununurra hoping to sort out the aircon and faced our first stumbling block – the Nissan dealer has switched to Toyota!! After many attempts to get Nissan dealerships to communicate and work together we may well follow suit and switch to Toyota too lol!! We detoured to Darwin to work with the dealer there but left 2 days later still without any joy! The saga continues as we hope to have Cairns line up the parts for us to get it fixed when we arrive…watch this space!

 

Litchfield NP


 
What an amazing place Litchfield NP is! We entered through the Daly River road to the south and took a challenging but beautiful 4WD journey up to Tjaynera Falls, which had a small and secluded camp site. We spent one day exploring the park and found anywhere accessible by 2WD beautiful but overcrowded. We loved the falls where we were camping and spent 3 nights relaxing. The boys made bows and arrows, Simon attempted to make fire traditionally and I wrote some poetry. Bliss J

 

The track had just opened as we arrived

Deep water crossing justified the snorkel!
