a few days r&r well spent in darwin and little bits of the NT hinterland.
darwin has it's charms, but it's kind of a three day town you'd visit on the way to somewhere else. very much a "we've been bombed" sort of a place at first with much memorialisation of the war days (not a sign of nicole to be found, though).
strange, in a way, to be in place which has had it's built history erased by war and tempest, with little of it's pioneering past evident in the built fabric, and little of merit in the replacement stock.
below are some photos from the war museum, a fairly ramshackle collection of bits and pieces, housed in the ruins of an old gun emplacement.
like most things in the tropics, everything feels on the edge of decay.
