Blog: Oh the most important thing
to remember is there is a public phone at Borderstore
(East Alligator) - At Borderstore there is also
a great seating area out the front of the shop and
really nice folks serving.
The must is the toilet across the road
near the public phone. Careful it's the famous 'Drop
Toilet'. If you don't know what that is then I will
leave it up to your imagination - it's self explanatory.
Accross the road from borderstore is
Cahill
Crossing -actually a stroll thru a track of about
300m to the crossing.
