The Kakadu National Park is a protected area in the Northern Territory of Australia and is 171km southeast of Darwin. It is a designated World Heritage Site and covers an area of 19,804 square kilometres,  approximately the size of Wales. Aboriginal people have occupied the Kakadu area continuously for at least 40,000 years. Kakadu is renowned for the richness of its Aboriginal cultural sites. There are more than 5,000 recorded art sites illustrating Aboriginal culture over thousands of years. About 500 Aboriginal people live in the park and many of them are are descendants of the traditional park owners and are come from the various clan groups from the Kakadu area. Their lifestyle has changed in recent years, but their traditional customs and beliefs remain very important.  All of Kakadu is jointly managed by these Aboriginal traditional owners and the Director of National Parks Australia.

The group spent their first night under the stars in the National Park and were woken in the morning to the sound of the wild. 

"Hey, Abi how did you sleep?" Sophie asked as she stretched in her sleeping bag.

"Not as bad as I expected." Abi replied, "It was actually quite comfortable. This isn't really my thing though - give me a five start hotel any day of the week."

Sophie gave a chuckle, "You'd be more comfortable and happy with Drew next to you I'd bet!" she said, trying to gauge a reaction.

"Drew and me? Come on, really?" Abi said, her cheeks beginning to brighten.

"Errr - hello - yeah! Come on Abs - I've seen the way you two are around each other!" Sophie responded as Drew unzipped and poked his head through the tent flaps. Abigail's face brightened further.

"Hi Abs, Sophie - you coming to breakfast?" he asked. 

Abi quickly played with her hair and neatened her appearance, "Sure, we'll be out in a moment." Her smile was beaming as Drew looked toward her. 

"Oh, I brought you guys some hot tea to get you going." Drew produced two camping mugs and handed them to Abi.

"No coffee?" Sophie asked hopefully.

"No sorry - guess this is what happens when you camp with Brits!" Drew laughed and zipped up the tent to leave the girls to change.

A few kilometres north Leanne lay naked cuddled against Mitch in their wooden cabin. She ran her hand through his hair and kissed him gently to wake him up. 

"Hi, good morning. Did you sleep well?" she asked.

"Lea," Mitch replied smiling as he woke, "Probably the best sleep I have had in years."

"You know, I am not sure I ever want to leave this place. It is so beautiful, and being here with you feels so special." She rolled herself on top of him and kissed her lover passionately on the lips. 

"Lea, you are really going to be testing my fitness!" Mitch gave a chuckle as Leanne felt him becoming aroused between her thighs. 

"I'm sure your fit enough for me!" she replied smiling from ear to ear, "Anyway, it's my turn on top! No need for you to tire yourself." Leanne reached down between her thighs and slipped his erection closer to her sex. She moved her hips back and forth against his hardness arousing herself and began to kiss Mitch passionately some more.

"Lea that feels so good!" Mitch pulled himself up from the bed a little and supported his back against the pillows. He moved his arms around Leanne's back and ran his hands up to her shoulders. The movement naturally pushed him closer to her and with her hip movements she felt him beginning to naturally penetrate her.

Leanne threw her head back allowing Mitch to kiss down her throat and she started pushing her breasts into his muscular chest. The feeling excited him more. Using his body weight, he pushed Leanne down to the bed reversing their position allowing him to deeply enter into her wanting void.
