Katherine and Mataranka

Us in the Power River

Well after Yellow River went traveled south towards Katherine. We stopped at Pine Creek. Pine Creek was once a mining town. It was surprising to find so many people who stopped to rest at the cafe next to the pub. They had great vanilla slices that we tried to purchase when went passed through again on our way to Litchfield but they had sold out. It was quite warm when we went to Katherine but we stopped to look at the bridge that Ron had built in his youth. Surprising it is still standing and takes the majority of traffic back and forth. On the second day at Katherine we went to Mataranka's hot springs where we had a great time meeting and making new friends. Mataranka is famous for the story "We of the Never Never' Charmaine brought the book after visiting the homestead where the film was shot. After the hot springs went went to the Power river and swam there. It was gorgeous scenary and we were the only soles around. Early next morning we got up at day break and made our way to Katherine Gorge where we travelled up through two gorges while eating breakfast. The scenery here was breathtaking. I took a great shot of Ang in front of the 2nd Gorge
