The next morning we went to the Doctors right away and scheduled an appointment for
After that
The cruise takes you through the first of 3 of I believe 17 gorges. By both sides you are surrounded by cliff faces 70 meters tall. After we reached the first gorge, we had to get off the boat and onto another one about 500 meters down the river, because of rapids. In regards to wildlife, we saw a bunch of bats and even a freshwater crocodile. All in all, it was a pretty good excursion with some beautiful views, but not worth $90. Apparently, Sarah’s hike was a little disappointing because it was too easy for her and much of the vegetation was burnt from a recent fire. We came back to Katherine and we were both craving ice cream. However, there are no ice cream places in the town so we had to go to McDonalds and get McFlurries. They have Cadbury crème flavor ones here and they are the bomb. Much to our surprise, the man that was posted up that morning was still there. I had so many questions that were left unanswered. The rest of the night was pretty regular: we grabbed Chinese, made conversation with a pair of german backpackers, and read until bed. That night however, we rolled down a window but covered it with a breathable shirt/ That way, we ere still able to get a breeze but didn’t have to worry about mosquitos.
