Day 14.
Our time in Darwin went far too quickly, but we went there to celebrate Alison’s birthday and catch up with her and Chris.
Our last evening together was planned to catch the sunset over Cullen Beach and have fish and chips on the balcony overlooking the beach. Naturally, the restaurant was closed but we did catch the sunset.

Went to the Fannie Bay trailer boat club and had a meal there instead. It is a nice club and we ate and chatted for a while before going back to the unit and picking up our bags.

Ali and Chris dropped us at the airport around 9.30pm to catch the 2am flight back to Sydney. Alison had a uni exam the following day, so we insisted that she get some sleep beforehand and Chris also had an early start.

The overnight flight from a balmy 28C in Darwin, to a bracing 8C in Sydney the following morning is not one that I want to do again. We both froze for the rest of the day, despite being rugged up and having the heater on all day.

Photo albums are now a thing of the past, but we can all relive and enrich our memories through avenues such as these web pages. Thanks kids.
