We Left Darwin with a Shake!

Yes, well ...... we left Darwin yesterday morning, only to hear about 4 hours later that Darwin had had a 7.2 magnitude earthquake around 12.30pm that had it's epicentre in the Banda Sea some 700 kms north of Darwin.

We thought it was just a bit of a rough bit of road. However, we have since been told that it was felt in Katherine (where we now are) some 300 kms south of Darwin.

All safe though, and will set off on catching up with some adventures here in Katherine.

  1. Earthquakes! I didn't think Australia had many of those, not like here in New Zealand. Sometimes we are called "The Shaky Isles.
    I'm enjoying reading about your trip away.
