Day 35: Darwin (city)

Today we cruised into town to go to the military museum. Here the kids learnt all about Darwin's role in the second world war as an allied base. There was a video describing the bombing of Darwin by the Japanese, where 188 Japanese planes sunk 10 ships and killed 251 people.






In the afternoon we headed for a man made lagoon on the edge of Darwin Harbour. It's cordoned off from Crocs! A nice way to finish off the day.






PS Thanks to all those leaving comments - we really enjoy reading them.
