Laurens Wave Pool Party. She has invited 3 friends from School - Emily, Rose and Ashley. They enjoy the wave pool and between heavy showers of rain we all have a good time. Hopefully you can see whats underneath the hard chocolate shell of the Pinata Cake! Delicious! A few onlookers helped sing Happy birthday too....








Lauren's 13th birthday!


Lauren shares her birthday with the event of Cyclone Carlos! We are hauled up inside staying dry and trying to have a fun day.
The Pinata cake was made for her birthday party at the wave pool on Saturday. This was a very interesting cake to make - particularily in the tropics! Chocolate melts and sweats so quickly here. But as the photos above show - it all worked out well in the end!

We have a look at Tolmer Falls and then go to Wangi Falls. Wangi is the twin falls and is my favourite spot. Very impressive - so much water. We couldn't swim here as it is closed in wet season. We were getting covered in spray from the power of the water coming over the falls.














This is Litchfield Tourist Park where we stayed for the night. And the huge termite mound at the entrance to the National Park. Very nice









Beautiful Florence Falls and a lovely nature walk around the falls. Was pouring with rain, but it didn't matter - we were going to get wet anyway!



Litchfield National Park







This is Buley Rock Holes at Litchfield.
The kids and Tim LOVED jumping from this tree into the water hole below. Even when the Ranger told them to stop - they went back the next day and did it again! Naughty! (But fun).














These are photos of our friends from Katherine. We catch up with them again when we go and get our caravan and bring her back to Darwin.
