Sunday night we had a great time at the Batchelor Oval, watching the Territory Day fireworks. Seems like the whole town turned out, and there was the usual "sausage sizzle" run by the Batchelor School. The crackers were very good, funded by the state government, and the mayor gave a short address. The kids in our campground also let a few crackers off, but we settled down to our usual silence and had a peaceful night.
Monday, here we are all checked in to our hotel, in downtown Darwin. The truck has been returned to the Apollo depot, and our camping gear disposed of. The day is very hot, as usual here, and we look forward to some good meals, and a bit of relaxation before we start the long trip home, via The Alice.
