Darwin Wharf

We set out to go to Mindil markets to get a meal on Thursday night. The GPS led us to close where we got a ticket but it was just after hours so we were safe (from a parking ticket at least). We didnt know where to go, GPS said we were 200 metres away, it lied!

We asked someone on the street who looked like she was going home from work therefore a local. We were quite a way away. Its quite difficult for someone to give directions when the other person doesnt know any of the local landmarks, finally she said Oh the casino and we said that we could put that in the GPS and we went from there.

OMGoodness, we didn't get to the markets are there were so many people and cars, no parking in any of the parks we drove into and the areas were quite tight, awkward when driving an unfamiliar car in an unfamiliar place. Finally I said to Warren lets just go to the wharf and eat.

We had been there earlier in the day but its not operating then but its a rocking little place for evening meals.
We were luckily enough to get a table right on the waterside and enjoyed a nice meal of chow mien with seafood of course.
We could see some movement in the water and on closer inspection, they were giant fish, some were the size of a dinner plate and about as thin plus others that were also huge. Fishing was not permitted just there but it was up to the entrance which was about thirty metres away.
