A brief sojourn to Kadadu National Park

With Barbara in Darwin for some training last week we took the opportunity for a quick visit this week to the Kakadu National Park, especially the Yellow Waters cruise at Cooinda and then a trip to the aboriginal rock art at Ubirr. The bird life was stunning and there were very many crocodiles.
