I stopped off in Katherine for two nights at the K Town and so glad I did. It has been newly renovated and everything is new and fresh. Thanks to Hasan and the team for the warm welcome. Lovely comfy bed and pillows, and most excellent fans and refrigerated air conditioners. Also, a large fridge, microwave, kettle and Dilmah tea bags, and a huge television with Netflix, You Tube and ABC news. After highway travel and cruising Nitmiluk Gorge (25kms down the same road) it was a joy to relax and watch a decent television with lovely air conditioning. K Town is very close to all shops and cafes so dinner and lunch was simple. On my second night there (10 Jan 2023) , at 03:17am the entire NT was rocked by a 7.7 magnitude earthquake. I was woken up by the fan clanking and the windows bellowing back and forth. The hotel was shaking and the ground was shaking for almost three minutes, which felt like an eternity. Hundreds of birds flew into the sky from the huge trees opposite and dogs were barking all over town. All guests were in the car park. Luckily, there was no damage and this good little hotel held its ground. I held onto the white verandah outside, upstairs, and again I could feel the cool white floor under my feet. By time the earthquake had subsided I was still shaking but again it was the lovely coolness of the white floors that kept me cool and grounded. Funny how these memories are made, and for that reason I will be back for a future visit when I'm next in this interesting town. Thank you to Hasan and the team.
