Thursday, July 4th:
We’ve finally left Western Australia! Today we drove to Katherine in the Northern Territory. It was a long drive (500+ kms). The children were excited about crossing the boundary, although they took a while to accept that the clocks had changed (NT is 1.5 hours ahead of WA). It’s strange, they don’t have any problems when they fly to a different time zone.
We stopped at Timber Creek for fuel, we stopped at the first station only to realise that the station next door was 9 cents per litre cheaper. Hey ho!
