Territory Day
July 1, 2008
Arrived in Darwin about 5pm on my Jetstar flight and took the airport shuttle to my hostel Melaleuca on Mitchell (who I later found out refund the shuttle bus cost of $9 anyway if you stay at least 3 nights). The hostel cost $28/night (with my YHA discount, despite not being a YHA hostel) and I was put in a female 4 bed dorm. My room-mates were L from England and K from Melbourne. I tried to find my friend Rose for ages but gave up and went to Mindil Beach with L and her friend C who drove us there to watch the Territory Day fireworks. They were amazing! They even had pink fireworks that exploded in the shape of hearts.
