Wednesday 3rd August – 12,550
Decamped and headed off to Katherine. Richard and Helen and already left as they needed to buy another fridge. In Katherine we went to restock the medicine chest – boy oh boy are they strict here. Medicine shops dont open until 2pm. More on that later. We bought tickets for the Katherine Gorge boat trip. It didn't have the WOW factor that other gorges had. I don't know if we are all gorged out. The gorge is huge, but not the best colours. Might also have been the sheep mentality of 60 people on a boat all following one another. Not really my thing. Saw quite a lot of freshies, baking on the banks. Back into town afterwards to try another booze crooze. Successful this time, but the first place, with a guard on door) didnt have any goon boxes so I went around the corner to the next place whilst Malcolm paid for his beer. Bingo I was in luck and as you can only buy 2 litre casks in NT I picked up 2. Promptly, but politely told that you can only buy one 2 litre cask a day and only before 6:00pm – I had 2 minutes to go. Would I have been a grumpy bum if I had been 2 minutes later. On top of all that, you have to show identity!!
