Unfortunately Wendy had to fit in a half-day's work today, so Greg took to his bike again. This time he headed West to the Mamukala Wetlands, about 35 km from Jabiru. He spent about half an hour wandering around the wetlands, rode the 35 km back home into a monster head wind and arrived home just in time for lunch, and then an LLD.
It was then time to hit the shops at Jabiru for resupplies. First up was PUMA to top up the Cruiser for the trip tomorrow. We then shopped for groceries at Foodland which had a good variety of stuff.
Greg started writing his Army History story before we left home and every afternoon he does a bit more; so that's what he did this afternoon, whilst Wendy worked on a photobook.
Pizzas for dinner finished off another great day on the road. We are hoping to stop at the Mary River Wilderness Retreat tomorrow for two nights. We are booked in at Darwin for seven days from 31 May, so need to spend another two nights somewhere. If Mary River is no good, we'll only spend the one night and find somewhere else for the next night.
