Gallery of log for Water Fountain

20-Jul-11
WanderingAus wandered by on day 56 of our annual Climatic Refugee trip, after dropping the geoPajero at the local Mitsubishi dealer for it's 45,000 Km service I was on foot with about 6 hours to spare.

After walking around Cullen Bay I headed in toward Darwin City, then started walking along The Esplanade. I desparately needed to use a Public Convenience, so when I saw a sign saying "To Shops and Mitchell Street" I climbed the steps and walked through, and came across this fountain in a large courtyard.

The spray of water isn't visible in the photo, but the ripples of water below the gpsr and spreading towards the rocks is where the water was landing.

Of course I didn't find a Public Convenience there, so I ended walking about another 500 metres before finding one at The Mitchell Centre.

After 5 hours 50 minutes and 13.271 Km total walking in 32 degree heat and 50% plus humidity my caching success for the day was a revisit of GC1Q8HA Old Darwin Hospital by CHEDENT which I found two years ago, collection of two travel bugs from there, and eight locationless cache finds including this one. My feet were aching like you wouldn't believe, so I surrendered at the bus stop - after all for old blokes like me the buses in Darwin are free.
