After the swim, we headed out to the airport for our one hour flight with Kakadu Air. Unfortunately, due to our combined weights, they could not take the 6 of us, so Doug & Sue offered to do the four o'clock flight, which probably worked out to be good, because although the flight was great and we took lots of photos, all of us except Joan were sickkkkkkk....... - none of us actually did the deed into the air-sick bag but we all had them ready and it did spoil the flight to a degree.
Comments Lorelle: "I was OK until the turns, then when I knew Geoff was feeling sick, I couldn't think of anything else."
Comments Gary: "Enjoyed the flight until he started banking and then dying to get home."
Comments Joan: "I had great confidence in our young pilot. Loved the spectacular scenery."
Comments Geoff: "I never get sick........"
When we got home, we went straight to our vans and had a sleep to recover.
Doug and Sue got the four o-clock flight which was a larger air-conditioned plane. We also gave them some Kwell tablets (anti-air/sea sickness) - we didn't take any unfortunately because we thought we would be fine!!! Anyway, Doug & Sue were fine!
Tomorrow we go on the yellow Water Morning cruise (2 hours) followed by a buffet breakfast. We have to drive 50km to Cooinda to be ready to leave on the cruise by about 6:30am - maybe an early night tonight.....
