Darwin


The first night we had tea with friends at the poolside bar and while we were there they had a trivia night. Our table won some prizes and i played heads and tails and i won a movie ticket.  We went to the Mindil Beach Markets.  My brother Austin cracked a whip twice and he was very excited.  Next we went and a sat on the beach and watched the sunset.  Then we went and watched some street performers.  One man played 5 didgeridoos and the next man performed with fire sticks and did some tricks.  There was also a girl that did tricks with a hool-a-hoop that was on fire.  We went to a water park that had 3 big waterslides like wet'n'wild and they were all free.  There was a big swimming lagoon too.  I went to my first rodeo.  It was fun to watch the cowboys and cowgirls ride the bulls and horses.  Miss Rodeo Australia and Miss Rodeo Canada were also there.  We went to the water park with our friends again while dad went on a fishing tour with their dad.  Next we went to one of mums friends place for lunch that are originally from Geelong.  We went to the movies to see Mr Poppers Penguins with the ticket i won at the trivia night.  The movie was funny.  We went to Crocosauras Cove. There we saw some big huge crocs and some baby crocs.  I held a baby croc and it felt weird.  I also fed juvenile crocodiles with a fishing rod.  I held a Stimpsons Python and a blue tongue lizard.  We saw a frill neck lizard with its frills up.  I went to a Sri Lanken night with our friends Melani, Zenzi, Andy and Vlunga.  It was yummy but a bit hot and spicy.
