I didn’t work much when I was in Australia, I wanted to travel around the continent as much as possible in the time I had.
Just a couple of weeks over Christmas in Surfers Paradise, to cover expenses, and a couple of weeks in Sydney, to pay for the return flight to New Zealand.
I was hitch-hiking everywhere, so no added ‘travel costs’.
Photo: Champagne Sunset at the Top End of Australia.
Romantic couple enjoying a glass of champagne under a Darwin palm tree, during sunset at the Top End of Australia.
What better way to enjoy nature’s light show than clinking a glass of sparkly with the one you love.
The bubbles rise as the sun sets and the colour of romance reflects in the loving couple’s eyes.
Sunsets in Darwin are big business; from sunset cruises to the food and craft Sunset Market at Mindil Beach.
Of course you can catch a glorious sunset for free just about anywhere along Darwin’s shoreline; East Point, Fannie Bay, along The Esplanade and down at the wharf.
For palm trees, head out to Nightcliff. If you can’t be there, you can always hang the picture on your wall and dream.
