Well the girl with the romantic dreams has arrived in Alice Springs. Will I meet my Bush Ranger and live happily ever after? Probably not 🙂 But I think I am going to enjoy Alice every bit as much as Perth, Melbourne and Cairns.

Right, I have been here half an hour or so. When I say “here”, I mean the Heavitree Gap Outback Lodge. I mentioned that this would be the budget part of my trip. It’s basic and hot – very, very hot. It could be worse. The room has air conditioning and there is a café that opens for dinner and a supermarket. I headed for the supermarket as soon as I arrived and stocked up on water and other basics. I thought I might find it too hot to walk there again. I may need to revisit my plans of finding romance in the outback 🙂
I don’t know where Alice Springs is. I haven’t seen it yet. My companion on the plane, a gold miner, warned me to be careful of the locals. So I might just wait for my tour tomorrow and enjoy the campsite pool, feeding the wallabies and the Wi-Fi. All of life’s little luxuries.
My first 2 day tour starts at 6.40am tomorrow.

Brings back memories of A Town like Alice, I tried to see photos but could not find play slideshow in snapfish, there was one photo and I clicked on everthing in sight but nothing happened maybe someone who sees the photos can tell me what to do.
Love Mam
Hi Mum. That worked for me yesterday but when I tried today I needed to log in. You might have to set up a snapfish account which is easy to do and free. It is a useful way to store your photos. Love Ann x
Your details worked, I can see the campsite is a bit of a comedown from your last accommodation, but one hotel is mush like another so it was good to try out something different.
Loce Mam
Glad it worked!
i must have thought you had gone to the south Pole with my mush, mush
