The journey to Darwin

We drove through the night sing to music, our spirits high as we started our journey. The Moon was big tonight and had a yellow hew to it. As we drove, travelling to our destination, so did the Moon travel from the horizon to up above us.
We made good time and we were in Sydney by about 2am. This was both good and bad. It meant the first leg of our trip went quickly, unfortunately the airport terminal we were using to fly to Darwin was closed until 4 am so we had to sit outside on the seats in front of the terminal building. Our flight was not until 8am so we had a bit of a wait. We walked around for a bit and got some food to eat. I had forgot how much the food costs at the airport, it is so expensive. But then eating out is expensive I guess.
At 8am we boarded and were on our way to Darwin. Like most flights I have been on, the flight felt like forever, even though it was only a 4 hour flight. The on board movie was “Crazy Rich Asians”. It is a movie that I had previously seen which was good as I had forgotten to get the complementary head phones from the stockpile at the gate.
I still enjoyed the movie even though it had no sound and it helped pass some of the time.
We got to Darwin and picked up the hire car. Then we drove to our families place to stay.
We caught up with family and in the evening one of my daughters and I went for a walk as I was feeling a bit low on energy after a nap and needed to take a walk to pick my energy back up again.

Here are some photos from our walk. They were just of random things we saw in the area we are staying in.
