No Picture today, we had a day in the rain. Light drizzle during judging this morning, but the afternoon got worse with almost constant rain. We went for a walk round the caravan park because we fell asleep infront of the tv. After calling in on friends, we borrowed their dogs to walk them round the park. It was good to take back a couple of wet dogs and not have to dry them.
Look like a wet pack up for tomorrow's trip home.

Whyalla
Arrived at Whyalla yesterday after leaving home at 10:30 am, a world record for us. Kathy judged Obedience and Keith did Agility today, so it was an early start to get the ring set up by 9:00 am. There was mild terror when the agility competitors saw the course, but as usual, they handled the difficult part well and lost it on the relatively easy bits. Kathy had the introductory classes, CCD and CD, but after judging she found a Sheltie pup to cuddle.
Tomorrow Keith does the Jumping classes, and Kathy does Open Obedience.

Tuesday in Darwin
Tuesday in Darwin was a tourist day. Pic shows us in the Civic Square near the NT Parliment. Next we went round to Nightcliff and Rapid Creek, then for a harbour cruise. Tonight is a gun dog training session, then our last dinner before flying home tomorrow.

Territory Wildlife Park
The Territory Wildlife Park is a must see. The bird show lasts about 20 minutes and has several different raptors going through their paces. The Aquarium was also worth seeing, when we were there the fish were being fed. A diver was hand feeding the Baramundi, whip rays, turtles etc. Kathy took a picture of the turtle, but the flash caused him to drop his bit of fish and another fish took it. I have never heard of anyone apologising to a turtle before, but Kathy was almost in tears because the turtle had missed his dinner.

Sunday in Darwin
Last night was a late finish after 12 classes in obedience and agility, so we were a bit late getting up this morning. We had a walk around the harbours, Stokes Hill and Milly Point, before having lunch at the Trailer Boat Club on Fanny Bay. There is nothing like Baramundi from Darwin.
