28/7/11 Adelaide River War Cemetery and Mindil Beach Market, Darwin

This morning before leaving Adelaide River we visited the War Cemetery.  It is a beautifully manicured garden.  Almost all the men buried there were young, from 18years old to early 20s. It is a very sombre place. I cried when we found the headstone of a 16 years old!



After setting up at Lee Point C.Van Park in Darwin, we went into the city and collected our mail. Thank you Jesse and Dustyn for collecting it for us. In the evening we went to the Mindil Beach market,  bought food, and watched the sun set over the ocean, along with hundreds (thousands?) of others.
