Edith Falls

From Katherine Gorge we drove into Katherine and surprise, surprise, spent the morning at some more hot springs. These were about 5 minutes out of Katherine and were really lovely. We then treated the boys to McDonalds for lunch as it has been a while since we had any fast food. I have to say I enjoyed my Big Mac!

We then drove about 30 minutes north of Katherine and turned off to a place called Edith Falls. Both Mum and a friend from school had recommended this place and we were not disappointed. It is absolutely lovely here.

The big boys all had a swim in the afternoon, even though it was a lot cooler than all the hot springs we had been in.

The next day we all went on the Leilyn Falls loop walk which was about 2.8km. We walked with some friends we have made who are travelling in a converted bus. They also have 3 boys and we got to have a look at their bus and it is very impressive. Big kitchen, big bathroom, outdoor entertainment system etc etc. I think we are all a bit envious!

The walk was pretty rough and steep in some places and Charlie nearly gave up a few times but it was well worth the effort. We made it to the upper falls which were so beautiful. Even I had a swim, it was really lovely. We saw a snake too, hopefully harmless!













The afternoon was spent in a blow up boat floating around Edith Falls. It was really hot today but we are all enjoying it!
