Alice Springs to Tennant Creek

I am terribly sorry that I haven’t written for a little while.

This morning we had packed up and left Alice Springs by 8:15am, headed for Tennant Creek. Talking into the two way radio we debated over where to have morning tea, and by the time Mummy decided on Ti Tree we had already driven through it . So we stopped off for morning tea at the side of the road, at Stuart Memorial roadside park, where we looked and compared some of the birds flittering amongst the trees and had a warm drink.

At lunch we stopped off at the Devil’s Marbles (some rocks).  They were huge and when you tapped them, they sounded hollow because the outer skin of the rock keeps breaking away.  They call it onion peels and then we looked and strolled around and we all got some great shots of the Devil’s Marbles and I even heaved some rocks around (LOL)!

Matilda and I made up a new dance routine after dinner tonight.  There was entertainment in our caravan park but our entertainment was more fun (LOL)!
