After 10 days of getting up very very early, we finally had the opportunity to sleep in... but woke up at 8h and couldn't sleep anymore! We packed our stuff and then had breakfast at the Coffee Club on Mitchell Street. From there we walked all the way to the Darwin Museum & Art Gallery, which took us an hour and which was a very hot walk! On our way we went to Mindil Beach, which supposedly is the popular beach in Darwin, which looks amazing, white sand and beautiful turquoise water (it's the Timor Sea), but that was completely empty due to the fact that it is prohibited to swim there because of the box jellyfish... (apparently they can kill you in 2 or 3 minutes...). The museum was really nice and interesting (and free!), they even had a 5-metre long crocodile called Sweetheart! From there we took a taxi back to the centre and had lunch and walked around, then went to the cinema to see Eagle Eye (really good movie!). For dinner we went to the Victorian Hotel again cause it was free and then at 21h we took the shuttle to the airport.
Weather: very hot, very humid cause it rained for a bit...
