Just Cruising

KATHERINE GORGE Yesterday it was just lovely having a cruise on the gorge, we went at 9am so very tranquil. It is hard to imagine that in the wet season the water is 6 to 8 metres higher. We visited the first three gorges and had to change boats at each gorge as the water is too low for the boats to go over the rocks. Even at this time of the year the water depth varies between 1 to 30 metres. Didn't see any freshwater crocodiles but there are some beaches that you cannot access as they are nesting there. There were quite a few canoes, we were a bit lazy and took the easy option. So nice with every day being 32 degrees - heaven!
