Just a quick post

hi everyone! I apologize to those who have emailed me. The stupid internet at our hostel is super slow, and it won't let me access my email. excellent.

Anyways, Darwin was very humid. Maggie's hair expanded to twice it's normal size. it was exciting. maybe not for Maggie. It was fun for us to see her hair curl.

So on our second day, we rented a car and drove to Litchfield national park, which is about 90 minutes away. It was amazing! We wnt to three different watering holes, all with waterfalls. It was beautiful, the water was clear and very clean, and it was a perfect way to spend a hot day. We climbed up one side of a small waterfall at Wangi falls, and got to sit and enjoy Boley Rockhole's mini-waterfalls and jump off rocks into the water. My leg did suffer a good three inch scrape when I slipped while climbing, but it's not that bad. Yes, Dad, I put Hydrogen peroxide on it. Stop worrying. I think I'm getting the last name of the falls wrong, but I have 3 minutes until my internet expires.

So that was fun, but we were very tired, and tried to go to sleep as early as possible because we had to get up at 2 to get to the airport for our flight to Cairns. It was not enough time. Plus our roommates wook us up when they came in. More on that later. Plus at the airport, we had to go through two seperate security checks, where at one they took our peanut butter. It was Peter Pan, the good kind too. Oh well.

Now we're in Cairns, having a good time in a cute hostel that sadly lacks in quality internet and happy employees. More on that later.

Ok, I have to go, but I will try to get back on and update in full later!

love,
Angela
