Wake up Nat
After breakfast we hiked to the top of Wangi Falls and had a chance to see our campsite and the land beyond.

On the way back from the hike we saw a kangaroo with the biggest set of balls I have ever seen!

Without any real agenda or timeline in mind we made the decision to spend the second day visiting the numerous waterfalls in Litchfield NP. Our first stop was Tolmer Falls, one of the highest waterfalls we had ever seen.

Next on the list was Florence Falls where we went for a swim. It was a little crowded but you could see why, the water was crystal clear and a great temperature / not cold. We had goggles and could see hundreds of large black bream under the water which the majority of the people had no idea were there.

Back on the road for a few hours to travel south to Katherine (home of the famous Katherine Gorge). We arrived in the afternoon and had a quick look at Edith Falls (part of the Gorge) and then grabbed a site in the local caravan park which backed onto the Katherine Hot Springs. We setup camp, broke out the beers, threw some steaks on the bbq and relaxed. We were going to check the springs out but the whole area is closed after 7pm so the local crocodiles can have the place to themselves.
