Friday 6th June.
Departed Coomalie RV park just after 8:00am, arrived in Darwin at 10:00am and proceeded to the Budget premises where we collected our little Toyota 3 door Yaris. We have this for three weeks and may extend if we decide to stay longer.
Gail drove the Yaris and followed me to the Lee Point Tourist Park where we have stayed on previous visits here. Lee Point is about 6km from the CBD near Casuarina. It is a good central location and a great park with swimming pools, very large natural sites with the choice of either grass or concrete to set up on. Adjacent to the park there is now a very large motel complex which is owned by the same man. This incorporates a magnificent restaurant which is open for breakfast and dinner and is available to the general public as well as the park residents such as us.
After setting up we jumped into the car and headed off to do our food shopping etc. at the very large Casuarina shopping complex. So large in fact that we could not find the car in the parking area for 3/4 hour despite getting assistance from the Centre management.
You need to get an Mobile app that shows the last GPS reading of where you parked, it's comes in very handy for me as I explore the Bay in my spare time.....so glad your having a great trip!
