I’m back in Sydney after a couple of weeks in Darwin for work. It was an awesome time to be there, as the “wet season” hasn’t arrived yet. However, there were a couple of days of high humidity combined with high temperatures. On two separate days, I arrived at work with a slightly damp shirt.
When I wasn’t at work, I got to experience a little bit of the Darwin life-style. Obviously not the same as living there, and obviously not the same as being a complete tourist. There were, however, quite a few things which made me smile. Here’s some of them.
Tasting the top end, with emu, crocodile, kangaroo (not strictly top end, since kangaroos are found further south) and wallaby.


“Would you live there?”, my friend Sue asked me over dinner tonight. “Nah… cyclones”.
