August 21 - 25: Alice Springs

The drive to Alice was made a bit more interesting with some quick stops on the way – we stopped to see Aliens, a huge man and the marker for the Tropic of Capricorn.

Dave has gone into a lot of detail about our visit to Alice in his blog, but it is fair to say that we were both experiencing a bit of homesickness while we were there. The view from our campsite was stunning, but it was windy and cold and it was quite a strange place to stay.

We enjoyed our visit to the West MacDonnell Ranges, with the chance to spend time walking in nature and seeing some beautiful rock formations.
