Edith Falls to Darwin!


After a bit of a sleep-in, we went to check out the main Edith Falls. The falls turned out to be a little bit of a disappointment after the one yesterday, but the pool was much larger and probably better for families and the like. However, there was also this lovely sign warning us of fresh and salt water crocs. Once we packed up the car, we decided to drive all the way in to Darwin this morning (a little over 300km).

We got in and went to go visit Pete at the Travelers' Auto Barn here; try and get some advice on the car and places to go in Darwin. After walking up and down Mitchell St, pretty much the 'main drag', we decided to stay at Melaluca on Mitchell. The place has a really nice pool/deck, a small but active bar, and nice enough rooms. Since all the hostels go for pretty much the same rate ($30 per person per night) we decided to go for the one that seemed the nicest. After some dinner, we're gonna check out the town, hopefully it treats us well!
