Alyson’s Darwin Adventure part 5

Mon, 19/07/2010 - 5:30pm
Everyone in Darwin nearly passed out when I said was going to Melbourne, cries of 'you're going to freeze!,' 'you'd better wrap up warm!' and 'but it's winter down there!' were made. I don't think they realised that I'm used to to the cold, and 17 degrees (which was what Melbourne was) isn't actually that bad! Related Articles
