Jumpy the Croc says G'day!


We stopped here, at one of the river cruise establishments along the Adelaide River, to have a bite to eat. This is one of those places where they hang a chicken carcass or some other tasty treat over the side of the boat and a gigantic semi-tame croc will jump up for your amusement. We passed on the cruise, knowing we'd see them in a more natural state in Kakadu, but the fiberglass version was pretty cool.




Darrin shows off his veggie salad sandwich. "Salad" in this context refers to the lettuce, tomato, and sometimes cucumber present in a sandwich. So, a "chicken salad sandwich" is not the mayonnaise concoction we are used to in the States, but rather lean chicken breast with lettuce and tomato on buttered bread. A veggie salad sandwich is pretty much just the lettuce, tomato, and cucumbers on buttered bread. I think this one had some beets and carrots, too.




This place was awesome... it had two giant fake crocodiles!
