The flight started out great and it was a perfect morning for it. But it was short lived when poor Mav started to feel sick and started throwing up everywhere! The flight was a bit rough. And then of course, it was my turn as well! Mav had another turn at throwing up before he practically past out! By the time we landed both Mav and Zander were asleep and Jason and I were feeling a bit worse for wear. I am glad we went on the flight (especially since today we found out you can't access Jim Jim and Twin Falls at the moment by car) but I will not be in any hurry to go on one of those planes ever again!!
We continued onto Litchfield National Park which is about 250kms north of Katherine. We were all a bit quite on the journey and still recovering. We arrived just after lunch and booked into the Litchfield Tourist Park. We dumped the trailer so we could go have a look around. We went to the Termite Mounds and some of them were over 50 years old and 5m tall! We then drove on the 4wd track to the Lost City. I am not sure why it is a 4wd only track as it was pretty tame (and Jas and the boys were very disappointed as they wanted to go "rough" 4wdriving) but the 10km drive was well worth it. The Lost City looks like ruins of an old city but it is made of sandstone formations. It's quite a site - very unusual.
As we headed back to camp, Zander almost threw up in the car and we had all had a enough for the day. Went for a swim, had a BBQ for dinner and early to bed. We are off to Darwin tomorrow. I am looking forward to a "capital city"!
