Ok day 2 of cruise part 2 and after checking on the albino buffalo who lives at the caravan park, in a fenced enclosure, we took off to head into Kakadu National Park. We had to negotiate some roadworks with traffic light controls and I had a thought that there have been only a small proportion of our actual travelling days when we have nor experienced some roadwork - I wonder what proportion of our population works on the roads or allied industries? We also passed a roadworks dump and again there are lots of these all over the place, ideal for a free overnight spot if needed. By the we were in the Mary River National Park (tenses national parks are quite a large industry, particularly in this part of the world, and deservedly so) and stopped at a story board. These story boards have been a feature wherever we have travelled and are a fantastic insight to the areas that they describe. Entering Kakadu there is not a big change in scenery, just bush with medium sizes trees, some gumtrees and palms, etc. There is also, of course, a story board, again very interesting. On to Jabiru which is sort of at the apex of the triangular road system which is (coming from Darwin in the north) the Arnhem Hwy into Kakadu then the Kakadu Hwy running sthwest down to Pine Creek on the Stuart Hwy. jabiru is a very small towns owe fuelled up, got some bread and headed out, stopping at the Bowali interpretive centre which like all the others that we have seen up here was great. Then down the Kakadu Hwy to our overnight stop at Jim Jim Billabong, a very very basic spot. The billabong is quite nice but you don't see much of it from the campground and the presence of crocs discourages swimming.
