Chapter 3 - Out and About...

I learned (in Karama) that the slang for an aboriginal person is "black fella". Darwin is supposedly more diverse than any other part of Australia, and I've seen a small mix of Asians and Aboriginis - not that many though. Most of the market vendors are Indonesian, Malaysian or Indian it seems.

Met up with Yasmin's old flatmate and her friends and learned how to fish at Buffalo Creek. Didn't catch a single thing :(


Going to the markets is the thing to do in Darwin, so we went to the Parap and Mindil Beach Markets. Watching the sun set at Mindil Beach is also a huge fanfare with hundreds of people showing up...
