Alice Springs Desert Park

Back in Alice again, this time to catch up with friends, clean up & stock up for our trip across the Plenty Highway into SW Qld. Missed the Henley-on-Todd Regatta by only a couple of days of course - just adding it to the list of festival & events we have missed!

We also visited the Alice Springs Desert Park, a great natural area right in Alice Springs itself which shows the different types of habitats, plants, bird & animal life found in the desert country in the Centre.

Great for people who aren't able to get out to Uluru or the MacDonnell Ranges & gorges whilst they are in the area. A fantastic nocturnal house kept us intrigued for quite some time.

Couldn't resist visiting a particular art gallery in Todd Mall ... & a favourite cafe for a coffee!
