Douglas Hot Springs Northern Territory 19th - 22nd. May 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

We stayed here for 3 night and it was very hot with just a light wind in the mornings. 

By the after noon the wind had stopped and showed my van at 39 c 

so ask Pat to put the generator on so I could cool down with air con on . 

Well I did have a go at climbing down the steps to the creek and made with Arnold s help.

Some parts of the creek were shallow but I stayed next to an old log. it was a bit deeper there.

But the best part was trying to get up.

 With Pats help I did it ok but had very sand graveled knees. 

By the time I made it back up to the top of the stairs. 

We were so hot you wanted to be in the water again.

We have a lot of birds came around and the hawks just loved coming. 

Ronnie was feeding them poor Arnold's Sausages.   : (    

  By throwing bits up in the air.  

They swooped down to catch some them and just waited till we were all quiet 

so they could get the rest.    

After leaving Douglas Hot springs we traveled on to the next part

Waiting for our dinner and when it did come so did all the fly's
