Falls, Falls everywhere a Falls …

The morning was spent getting rid of dust in cupboards and other nooks and crannys in the van. Some dust was from last year, the year before and this trip.
 
It was then time to visit the various waterfalls in Litchfield National Park, all but one you can swim in, so we only visited the ones you could get wet in.
 
First on the list was Wangi Falls. The swimming area was open with no snapping handbags in the area and plenty of feed floating around if there was.
 
The water was certainly refreshing but you soon got used to it. With a noodle each it was easy going discovering under the falls and in the elevated rock pool.
 
After an hour, it was time to move onto the next waterfall. This time it was Florence Falls. These are a couple of k’s downstream from Buley Rockhole.
 
There was 2 ways to get to then. One was a kilometre walk along a paved path or a 400 metre descent down 135 stairs. We chose the long way of course, after-all there was a geocache to be found on the way.
 
Even though Florence Falls are mostly shaded, the water seemed to be warmer than Wangi Falls. The current was a lot stronger here but that would be due to a smaller pool for the amount of water flow.
 
After another hour or so, we headed back to Buley Rockhole to finish off the day.
 
Tomorrow we should end up in Katherine but may go all the way through to Mataranka.
