DARWIN<br />
into the wild<br />
The tropical capital of Australia,<br />
Darwin is hot stuff (quite literally).<br />
With balmy weather, a melting<br />
pot of culture and many festivals<br />
and markets, you’re going to want<br />
plenty of time for exploration.<br />
Time your visit for the annual Beer<br />
Can Regatta - tiny boats built<br />
from booze empties - or check out<br />
the national parks of Kakadu and<br />
Litchfield. Nothing beats plunging<br />
into a crystal-clear, cooling<br />
waterhole after a day exploring<br />
scorched landscapes!<br />
