Explored Jabiru, found the shopping centre. On the side of our bus are two eyes and we didn't know what they were for until at Mataranka we saw that a van had like an airing rack attached for small washing items. We looked everywhere we could think of for one of these and low and behold we found one in the supermarket at Jabiru. I also got a new fruit bowl this one is made out of wood and already has had one crash so its needs some anti slip matting.
We had lunch beside Lake Jabiru, there were a lot of people there and lots of Jabiru birds.
Then to the airport we were about an hour early but we watched the planes and helicopters land and take off, its busier than Launceston airport. I just happen to mention to Gerald that we were very early for our 2.30 flight and the pilot heard me and said we could go now.
Wow what an experience, there were no doors on the helicopter so I did have some reservations at first but it was excellent thoroughly recommend it.
Came back and had a swim cool but ok once you got used to it. Then we had a BBQ tea at the Lodge beside the pool. Gerald had a bit of everything except the kangaroo, he said the steak was so tender and the sausage was very tasty. I just had Barra and tried the Kangaroo, that was a bit tough and the fish was a bit dry, but nice not to have to cook.
