The plans

Northern Territory bound, first holiday travel since COVID.  We've seen lots of Australia in the past; never been to NT, so here we go.  Flying Brisbane to Darwin Monday 8th May, flying back into Brisbane (via Melbourne...and that's a long story!!) on Thursday 25th May.  We have 18 days to see 2 months worth of the Territory.

We're hiring a car, spending 5 nights in Darwin, 4 nights in Kakadu, 8 hour drive to spend 1 night in Renner Springs, 7 hour drive to spend 2 nights in Alice Springs, 5 hour drive to spend 5 nights in Uluru.  We have a very loose itineray which may suprise some?  This is the general plan with a fair bit of planning to be done on the run.
