Kakadu - Day 2

Busy afternoon and evening at Kakadu. Left after lunch to go to Nourlangie rock where we climbed several lookouts, and saw some more recent but interesting aboriginal rock art. A lot of the art is painted over previous art, so some can be harder to see. More common things are kangaroos, spirts and fish, lots of fish.

 After our rock climbing, we went to Yellow Water for a sunset boat ride on the wetlands. Many crocs, birds, and fantastic sunset.
