Just popping out..... Back in a jiffy!!!
Just arrived in Alice Springs after spending 6 days on the road with stopovers in Parachilna, Rawnsley Park, Coober Pedy, Ayer's Rock and King's Canyon!!!! Lots of time was spent in a not so comfortable minibus!!!!!!
Parachilna was pretty cool!!!!! Population of 4!!!! Nice pub there though and a great sunset and sunrise!!!! Our food here consisted of Kangaroo steak, Camel sausage and Emu patties!!!!!!
Rawnsley Park was also good with a swimming pool to cool down in!!!!!! Most welcome!!!!!!
Coober Pedy - Opal capital of the world!!!!!! We atayed in underground rooms here!!!! Most of the housesare underground and naturally keep a constant temp of 22 degrees, even when it's in the 50's outside!!!!!
Next stop was Ayer's rock for sunset!!!! It was amazing to watch 'The Rock' change colours every few minutes as the sun got lower!!!!! Our accomodation here was under the stars in swags!!!! Went back for sunrise the next morning and walked around the base!!!!
Then we went to The Olgas and onto King's Canyon for another night in swags!!!!
Back to King's Canyon for a walk up to and around the perimiter before our final leg to Alice Springs!!!!
Staying here briefly before heading to Cairns in another minibus!!!!!!!
