Today we went shopping at Katherine. We then went to Cutta Cutta Caves. The caves were like most limestone caves but with a thermal pool right at the end. The cave had Stalactites and Stalagmites but only grow 0.01 of a millimeter a year which is very small compared to other caves. The cave was damaged from people having parties in it in the 1960’s and also from soldiers practicing there aiming skills deliberately trying to become deaf so they would be discharged from the army. We then went to Bitter Springs north of Mataranka. We had lunch there and then Ethan, Liam and Dana went swimming for half an hour. We then continued south and stayed at Newcastle Water Rest area. While we were there we met a man who was cycling from Adelaide to Darwin on a three wheeled bike for a holiday. He travels an average distance of 112 kilometers per day and has allowed six weeks for the trip.
