Darwin, busy day off

DSCF9875

My spot last was good and free. I found an ugly park next to the Marina in Darwin where no one would come to run or chill during the morning. And I was right :-) Peace and quiet but still very hot and humid. My tent, the bike plus trailer were soaking wet this morning. Today I’ve done numerous of useful things. First I’ve been moving to another park where I could get some water and a sit on a bench to have my breakfast. Then I went to a public swimming to have a shower and spent some time in the water. At least I paid $4 for something :-) Then I came back in the city and took an appointment with a doctor to know what kind of immunisation I need for Indonesia. Before the appointment I’ve been to the post office and did 12 ID photos so I will be ready to apply for any visa! Just on time I came back to see the doctor and he gave me Malaria tablets + Typhoid and Hepatitis A shot. The Malaria tablets works against the Mozis. The Hepatitis A vaccine protect from food and water and the typhoid vaccine protects from infection by a particular bacterium (Salmonella typhi). It can be find in contaminated food and water as well. The list was not that long so I guess it’s just the useful ones to do. When it was done and after I’ve spent $300 I went to the library where I’ve been working on my blog until 5:30pm. And finally I came back to see Nicole, Jose, Jean Louis and Jack on their wonderful boat. I really had a good time with them. We talked travel, adventure, travel, and politic, and travel :-). As I said yesterday they are very inspiring. One day, ONE DAY, I will put my bike on a sailing boat and visit the world again but differently!

One thought on “Darwin, busy day off

  1. I don’t know… I’ve heard Malaria tablets don’t really work and make you feel sick.
    Just don’t get bitten by any mosquito. :-)
