This was an interesting
vehicle we spotted at the campground the luxury
Apollo
2 berth camper with a toilet, shower and
kitchette - built for 2 people.
A suggestion
if you like this rental vehicle book it many
months ahead as it is heavily booked.

Notice there
is plenty of room for those large caravan's
at Gagudju Lodge Cooinda - Campground.
The campground
was roomy enough for everyone to spread out
and not be penned in like some parks we have
seen.

What we like is
the vast amount of carparks at Gagudju Lodge Cooinda.
Great for motorhomes and caravans.

very clean and a pleasure to stay at.

Kakadu
National Park - Seasons
But Australia's Kakadu
sees seasons of varied extremes -- so varied, in fact,
that the park's longtime aboriginal inhabitants have
divided the year into six distinct seasons.
• Kakadu
Seasons - Gunumeleng Pre-Monsoon Storm Season -
Gunumeleng, from mid-October to late December, may in
fact last from a few weeks to several months.
• Kakadu
Seasons - Gudjewg - Monsoon Season - Gudjewg, from
January to March, can be described as the 'true' wet
season.
• Kakadu
Seasons - Banggereng - Knock 'em down storm Season
- Banggerreng, in April, is the season when the rain
clouds have dispersed and clear skies prevail.
• Kakadu
Seasons - Yegge - Cooler but still humid Season
- Yegge, from May to mid-June, is relatively cool with
low humidity.
• Kakadu
Seasons - Wurrgeng - Cold Weather Season - Wurrgeng,
from mid-June to mid-August, is the 'cold weather' time;
humidity is low, daytime temperatures are around 30°C
and night-time temperatures are around 17°C.
• Kakadu
Seasons - Gurrung - Hot Dry Weather - Gurrung, from
mid-August to mid-October, is hot and dry.
