Entry: NT Wildlife park Jun 23, 2004



Went out to the local wildlife park today... it was pretty cool, walking in the enclosures with the kangaroos (they COULD come over to us, they just chose not to) and seeing several other neat critters and an excellent aquarium.

Last night after posting, I went swimming for a bit at the hotel, then hit up Mindil beach with some folks from my program and some of the Dukies. We had a hardcore game of Ultimate Frisbee, in which my team got hammered... however, to make up for our athletic deficiencies, we named ourselves "Team Aussie Love", and every time something went wrong we just looked at each other and said "no worries mate... we're in Australia" and all was again right with the world.  We took a few ocean breaks, but kept them short and shallow due to the crocs...  After that we jogged up a hill to a pavilion on a cliff to watch sunset, which was spectacular.  Went out to dinner at Ducks Nuts, then studied at the pool with some of the engineering folks (We had a quiz today). 

I'll be gone for a few days starting tomorrow at 6 AM. We're going to Kakadu national park, wherein we will see some awesome scenes, waterfalls, crocs and what not, Aboriginal art... We're starting with a cruise down the Adelaide river, where they dangle chickens over the side for crocs to jump at... We'll also throw some crocs and roos on the barbie one night!  Anyhow, I'll be back in three days, dunno when I'll update again though. I'm taking the lead on organizing a day trip to Litchfield National Park on one of our free days (Sunday/Monday), so I'll be occupied... Leave some love in the comments section or the tagboard on your left! I'll be gone three full days, there's no excuse for letting me come home to 0 messages :-p   Catcha later,

-Pat
