“Enjoyed the trip to Litchfield with Lars who took us to the many springs in the park fit for bathing and gave us time for a dip in each of them.

“Fastest way to get to Kakadu if you are short on time. Views from fixed wing plane vary by seat location (you want to sit in the last row, away from the wings which block the view).
