Happy days!
It's getting so close now to that time of the year.
I can't wait to get back up in a chopper and see Jim Jim and Twin Falls pumping this wet season.

How's this? The middle of the school holidays and we had this all to ourselves.

This has to be one of the best starts to exploring Ubirr ever.
We got to watch this Joey, Wilkins' Rock Wallaby, having a bit brekky, while Mum and Dad were hanging off to the side.

Had a few days off, so headed back out to Kakadu. My early morning start was rewarded with nearly two hours of having Ubirr all to myself. #awayfromthecrowds #ubirr #sugarbagsafaris 🥾 🎨 🤠

It definitely pays to be careful around any body of water. Found this one just in a culvert on the side of the road, might be a mum too, was a few young ones hanging around.

I always love it when I get to show people these beautiful grasshoppers.
Alyurr or Leichhardt’s Grasshopper can usually be found in the stone country of Kakadu and Arnhem Land during the wet season. 🦗⛈#leichhardtsgrasshopper #alyurr #namarrkon #seekakadu #sugarbagsafaris 🤠

					  It's been two months since our absolutely stunning Australian trip. We had only 4 days in NT and we must say - Hamish did a fantastic job showing us the... read more best of Kakadu, Nitmiluk and Litchfield National Park having so little time. He took us to the places we wouldn’t find if we traveled alone. With Hamish as our guide we had a chance to experience swimming in beautiful and wild waterholes, take a sunrise water cruise where we could see awaking of nature, and just feel the spirit of wild Australia – it was an unforgettable experience. 

Thank you Hamish once again – we had a really great time! 🙂

					  We booked Sugarbag Safaris  to take us places that we couldn't get to on our own.  Turned out to be so much more than expected. Hamish was able... read more to introduce us to places and history we had no idea about.  Hamish is so easy going but the operation is tight. Highly recommended.
