167 - Litchfield National Park Revisited

Two good looking senior citizens or Tight Arse Pensioners

We left our retreat on Monday 2nd of July with a decision to back track our journey, and head back to the east to Cairns, to see the kidz and grandeeeeeeez. So it means instead of doing a right hand turn at Katherine and heading west to WA, we will be going back exactly the way we came up until Mt. Isa, then do the left hand turn just prior to Cloncurry.

The next part of the trip to Cairns is again a back track of the same route we took 2 years ago when we left Undara Lava Tubes. So from Cloncurry we will then head straight up to Normaton, via Gregory Downs and possibly Lawn Hill NP. Once there we will do a right hand turn along the Gulf  Development Road and back to Cairns.

However this post is all about LNP. Now the reason we are here, is because the bride was not with me when I visited the park a few weeks ago, which was when she had to return to Coffs Harbour for a funeral. So I felt it best she visit the park.....basically so she can say "been there done that."

So we booked into Litchfield Tourist Park for two nights and did the route to all the falls again. Not much to report as I did a post of LTP a couple of posts ago. However I will add a few photies taken on this day.

One mighty big termite mound 

Blueys Rock Hole

Getting a bit daring dear

Wangi Falls are the pick

We didn't expose the volumptious bodies to the multitude and go for a swim. The bride just wanted to see LNP. So a round trip of half a day was achievable because we were at the entrance of the park.

Ahhhhhhhh to be young

At the time of writing this blog, we have moved further south and now at, and again at Mt. Bundy Station. We really like it here and are spending eight days here.

More on Mt. Bundy Station next, so stay toooooned.
