Katherine Gorge and Adelaide River

Katherine Gorge features a hike to a lookout and a waterfall.

Camels line the side of the road, watching cars suspiciously then eating.

We overnight in Adelaide River at a horse farm, which at the time is playing host to a meteorological research project. Every three hours balloon with a transmitter is released and its trajectory and environmental data is tracked. Either the researcher who gives us a tour of the control room is a bit vague on the point of it all or I am a poor listener. Or both. Apparently, the project is being documented by the Discovery Channel. Please look to them for additional details if you are interested. I think that it was the Discovery Channel...
