14.8.15 - Darwin | Jabiru

I`m writting from Jabiru, under a starry sky. A country with Europe dimension but with only 23 million inhabitants has fantastic things.One is no pollution, not be felt in sky the smoke from houses and factories or the projection of lights.Thus, the stars appear unafraid to show its brilliance; the entire Milky Way undresses for us as a model in a photo shoot: beautiful.Under these heavens look back today. I write on Moleskine because there isn`t internet connection and I don`t want to disturb the silence with the sound of PC keys.In the morning, as always, it was a film to arrive on time at the airport. As I said earlier, it seems that we do on purpose but I swear We didn`t.On the flight to Darwin, in a lowcost company, I talked with two nice ladies who were giving me tips of what we could do, or not in the coming days.The first was: don`t swim.

Arrived in Darwin, we had an oven with the door open waiting for us. The wet on dry land are high and therefore there is no moisture in the air. It's good because you do not sweat as much and there are not so many mosquitoes.Car loaded with the Monte Campo on bag, cheese, pasta, canned goods, fruit, water, beer, Coca-Cola and other things from the nearest supermarket and we set path.Barely got out of Darwin and into a straight road that brought us to the interior of the Northern Territory, we begin to see the termite nests that more resembled the skyscrapers of Sydney downtown.

Herds of buffalo and signs and signs to be careful with the crocodiles.Speaking of crocodiles, we stopped upon a pool of water and there was one - small, with about 3.5 meters - sunbathing on the shore. Barely noticed us, with surprising agility, disappeared into the water; and could be 500 with him, given the darkness of that water mixed with mud. It was so fast that neither has to shoot.Further, to cross the bridge of the South Alligator River, several are exhibited on the banks of the river. Unfortunately couldn`t stop and therefore post-dinosaur photos are for tomorrow.We are staying in a bungalow within a caravan park; something very common here. Pick-Up`s with the closed box, which comes out of everything from a tent that covers the entire truck to gas grills, joining special equipment to see wildlife, hammocks, bicycles, etc. etc .. All that an adventurer might need to cross the country.Taking advantage of last minutes of sun, we went for a ride by Jabiru. We have seen two camps with thousands of parrots and bats competing with the noise through the trees. The skittish parrots with their sterns yellow. Bats ... Bruce Wayne size.It's early, but late here. I will continue to look at the sky and scribbling in my green notebook ...
