DARWIN - HUMPTY DOO
28TH June 2014
For the past couple of weeks Karrots and I have been living quietly doing a housesit in Humpty Doo which is a rural area of Darwin about 10 minutes drive further out from where we were at Howard Springs. Luckily Jayne the lady who owns the property has kindly lent me her car whilst she is away so I can maintain my contact with the outside world and seem relatively normal. We are minding 4 beautiful dogs who are very well behaved, two rabbits and two guinea pigs which keep me pretty busy as Keith is working 5 1/2 days a week. It's school holidays here so there is quite a bit on.The Darwin Festival starts on 7th August and runs until the 24th August which is a big thing in the dry season and there is constant entertainment on all month which involves a myriad of things to do from theatre, comedy, bands, dance and various art festivals all month.
This morning I paid a visit to Aquascene in Doctors Gully. When the tide is high this area plays host to hundreds of friendly local fish who swim in and you can hand feed them fresh bread. This tradition has been going on for over 60 years much is the fascination of the thousands of tourists every year that flock here.
A groper that dropped in for a feed.
