Day 8 - 12 - Darwin

Day 8 Saturday 13th March:
Woke early to the sound of fire arms going off in the hotel Mantra, the entire hotel was evacuated, some interesting site seeing amongst this lot.

We met up with the guys from NT Motorcycles to let them know we were in town, they were kind enough to allow us to give our motorcycles a thorough clean, especially with all the bugs that we picked up through central Australia

Day 9 Sunday 14th March:
Moved over to Value Inn to minimise accomodation costs.

Day 10 Monday 15th
Back to NT Motorcyles, HD Road King was in for a service, Chris had to look after his own bike, he was allowed to use the work shop.

The Road King was fitted with some bits that were outstanding, the NT guys did all this in a flash, then they organised the crate.

While was crating his bike he received word that a friend had died in an motorcycle accident in Argentina and that he would not be continuing the journey and decided to head back to be with his family when I was ready to leave the country.

Day 11 Tuesday 16th March
An opportunity to get to see a little of Darwin.

Day 12 Wednesday 17th March
Essentially a waiting day, no bike, a flight that was scheduled for 7:30pm to Denpasar.

Flight to Denpasar was on time, however, processing at Immigration was punishing about an 1.5 hours to get through.

Pick-up by Ps Wayan an Gayle from C3 Bali.

I was driven to the home of Peter and Robyn for my stay in Bali.
