Yes we were up when our noisy neighbours came home. We packed up camp and set off to explore Katherine Gorge. Having come up from the south where it had been 20 - 24 deg during the day, we had a shock when we found ourselves walking in 38 deg before lunchtime. We re-evaluated the need to continue exploring further and further up the gorge and were happy with what we had seen. 
We then headed to Edith Falls hoping to get a swim and a campsite. Unfortunately we only could achieve one of these goals when we were greeted with a 'full campsite' sign when we arrived. After a quick dip we were on the road again looking for somewhere to stay.
We ended up at Hayes Creek where we had the unexpected company of a private helicopter drop in and stay the night. Tea consisted of a wonderful chicken and noodle stir-fry done on the BBQ before bedding down for the night.
