Alice Springs – 28 June 2009

We made it!  The truck was dutifully kept topped up with diesel and we arrived without a repeat of Friday's little episode where it decided to stop about 8-10 kms outside Tennant Creek!!  First off tomorrow is to get it booked in for service and hopefully all will be well.

We travelled 50...

We were all starting to feel really tired. Other than Coober Pedy and Yulara we have set camp every day, so we are looking forward to Alice Springs to be in one place for more than one day. We booked 4 days at McDonald Ranges CV Pk, which has great facilities for the kids - the girls love the huge pillows, the monkey bar...

Spent a few days relaxing in Alice Springs. Actually, I didnt want to be there for more than a day, but I wanted to take the train from Alice to Adelaide, and it didnt leave until Sunday the 24th. So I mostly just sat around, read a little, walked around the city, and did my best not to spend too much money.

A notre arrivee a Alice Springs, un doux soleil nous attendais. Nous nous sommes promene dans cette ville en plein milieu du desert (22 000 habitants). les petites rues du centre-ville sont tres jolies. Nous devions aller confirmer nos presences pour notre tour du lendemain. Arrives au bureau du Rock Tour une mauvaise surprise nous attendais... ...

Arrived in Alice Springs on the afternoon of 31st October (Halloween) to find that the weather was really hot & sticky! Next morning we headed on a three day tour to the desert region visiting Ayres Rock & the King's Canyon but we awoke to find it was raining! Fair enough! But it didn't stop raining for most of the time we were on the to...

The outback is like nothing we've ever seen before it's a desert but there are still bushes and trees (it must be said the trees are somewhat stunted or burnt). Distances between A and B are immense 500+ km where the only things in between are petrol stops in Roadhouses and view point stops for people to stretch their legs. Driving up to the cen...

The last day in Alice Springs would be a fairly busy one as we were due to fly to Cairns at 2:30pm today. First of all we visited the Telegraph Station where in 1872 the Overland Telegraph Line was completed. That line meant that communication was improved remarkably between Australia at the rest of the world. Instead of taking months by sea mes...

What an increadible trip that was...2 days of constant driving through ever changing scenery...from the mountainous dry South Australia, to the red desert plains on the center of this huge continent. Although I was completely antisocial...i really really tried (promise), but couldnt find anything in common with the rest of the group (aged 18-22,...

Woke up at 5am with Marc moaning about how cold he was, so being generous Heather agreed to swap her warm sleeping bags for his thin cold one. Isn't she lovely? There wasn't as much of a rush as we decided that we wanted a lie in rather than watching the sun rise. After a leisurly breakfast (with more coco pops and toast cooked on the camp fire)...
