Yeh - spot on Willem - having been to both -
Kakadu would have to be my favourite -
Litchfield seemed to be TOO accessible mostly - great place - but just not as wild as
Kakadu - I get really annoyed with people who call it Kakadont - I feel that sometimes it is that people aren't willing to get in their vehicle and drive several hours to a place - this is a big, wide country, and it can take a long time to get between
places - but to my mind half the enjoyment is in the getting there - my husband and I agree that some of our best times on a trip are spent in the car just getting there.
Kakadu is that sort of place - you do have to take the time to get between
places - you can't zoom around in a day - you just miss too mu ch - we all need to take the time to enjoy what is around us - we've been known to take three days to travel 100k - because we saw a
sign on the road and decided to investigate what was there - spent some time and then got back on the road - love it!!
(And I don't mind paying to get into some
places - after all facilities have to be managed, cleaned and cared for - i.e. picking up rubbish left by careless people)
