Some pictures from the 3000km drive from Cairns to Darwin. Crossing the empty land with straight roads and a petrol station in every few hundred kilometers.

Swimming in hot water creek (small river). There was also signes that freshwater crocodiles live in the area, but still it was one excellent experience.
