Back in Darwin

Marg and John - we promise we will clean up.

We are back in Darwin and all is well. We have retrieved things from the shed, donethe downloads on the computers and started packing again, so stuff will fit in planes. We have exploded into John and Marg's lounge room. Not a pretty sight, but it will all be normal by tomorrow. John and Marg are being brave letting us use their lounge room for sorting. It seems the heat in the storage shed did not do any damage.

We have more or less got organised. The charters are all booked. Most shopping done and the printing is ready to roll. Just have to organise the supply drops tomorrow and finalise catering.

Michelle arrived in Darwin with a sore mouth after a terrible tooth extraction under anaesthetic. Her mouth became infected and so she spent the first afternoon in Darwin at the Doctors. Two days later she has now started taking ordinary panadol and is unlikely to visit a dentist in the next 38 years. Hopefully she will be ready to fly away this week.

The big news of the day today is Michelle has her own fishing rod and lures. She can even cast without too much strife. No catch and only lost one lure in practice. Not a bad effort for someone with a sore mouth. Twas nice and cool on the water.

We get to have dinner with Stephe tomorrow before heading off. We will soon have much more interesting blog news as we travel out to Millingimbi and Raminginning on the first two weeks leg.

Hope everyone is fine at home!!!

Michelle and Paul ( on the road again!!!)
