We have now arrived in Darwin, end of leg two, and have a two day rest. Nice not to be up @ 5 am with a thousand klm to be covered. Weather is hot and tropical, far distant from our frozen nights a few days ago across the Australian bight. We have travelled now 8379 klms in the event ( almost 10 k with travel to the start in Melbourne, two weeks ago today!). Tonto is travelling well, just needs a service etc for our third leg across to Cairns. A few photos of Broome to Darwin.. almost 2 000 klm last two days!!
