Darwin /ˈdɑːrwɪn/ (audio speaker iconlisten) (DAR-win) is the capital city of the Northern Territory, Australia. The city is known as Garramilla to the traditional owners of the area, the Larrakia people,[7] a word which refers to the white stone found in the area.[8] With an estimated population of 147,255 as of 2019, the city contains the majority of the residents of the sparsely-populated Northern Territory.[9]

Bali (/ˈbɑːli/; Balinese: ᬩᬮᬶ) is a province of Indonesia and the westernmost of the Lesser Sunda Islands. East of Java and west of Lombok, the province includes the island of Bali and a few smaller neighbouring islands, notably Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan, and Nusa Ceningan. The provincial capital, Denpasar,[7] is the most populous city in the Lesser Sunda Islands and the second-largest, after Makassar, in Eastern Indonesia. The upland town of Ubud in Greater Denpasar is considered Bali’s cultural centre. The province is Indonesia’s main tourist destination, with a significant rise in tourism since the 1980s.[8] Tourism-related business makes up 80% of its economy.[9]

Event reminder …

Again, I feel a daytime flight would show off the flight out of Darwin, the opal like colours of the Northern Territory terrain and the stark beauty of the Kimberly Coast.

Look forward to stepping aboard our corporate jet and flying away to Bali. See you soon.
