Well things are settling in to a boring pace here. Get up sunny outside, top of 30c (that's high of 30 in Ozzie speak) and a bottom in the 20s. That's pretty much been going on for 3 months now. My weather thing on my computer says it will hit 91F or 32c this Thursday. I'm not sure if this is what the call the buildup (the buildup to the wet) but I don't think so because it's not humid yet and the buildup is supposed to be really sticky.
Well we were having visits by the possums before but lately they haven't shown up. I think they move around in some sort of territory. But for sure they were sleeping in the bloody roof on Sunday morning because I could hear them walking around up there. But not my house so I'm not getting up there to shooo them out.
As you can see from the pictures that we had one visit and it was a mummy. She had her baby holding on her back and the baby is holding on as she climbs trees as well.
There are some other pictures there I don't know what happened to the first lot of pics I think Picasa couldn't find them on my computer because I didn't have the hard drive plugged in so it removed them.
By who do I call them marpoopials because when we left the food out they decided to poop all over the patio. Now I'm gonna have to get a shovel to clean up after the little buggers. But they are cute and we do love watching them and they are pretty timid so they don't come up to us. Living here is like the wild kingdom not that we can see the animals but we can certainly hear them. There are fights and screaming and that's not the neighbors but the animals. We have a tree one yard over and it looks like the tree from Avatar. I showed it in a previous video (see the blog or youtube) and now our place has finally been put in order I'll do a video of our house.
We still haven't gotten a decent connection to the internet but hopefully soon. Then I can uploading some more videos but really I can't think of what there isn't much here in Darwin. As a tourist spot it's kinda sparse (my opinion). Other than the croc attractions there isn't much here to do. There is the casino which we have joined so we can get the discount at the buffet. Not quite as good as Mandarin but good enough and coke is included (you know I may have said this in a previous email so maybe I'm getting old and jelloie in the head).
So here are the pictures

Take care everyone I'll try to write sooner next time.
