Perry's on the Daly



In to Katherine, quick stop into Woolworths for some groceries (medicine chest still ok). Headed north to Daly Waters to find the hot springs. Being school holidays (and a public holiday in Darwin) found the campsite quite full. Managed to find a space for our 4 vehicles, lunch and down into the creek for a soak. Very interesting one cold and one hot creek converging, with only a very small spot where the water was comfortable. We plonked (read 'plonk' not plank) ourselves down next to a couple from Bunbury, heh such a small world. It was a couple of hours before we could drag ourselves out, but then when we got back to the campsite, there were even more people there. Absolutely surrounded by tarps, vans of every description and tents, smoke from fires. Oh well we have to share this beautiful land occasionally. Not a good night, our camping area was engulfed by a mob of young “yobbos”. They carried on into the early hours of the morning, with disgraceful behaviour.
