Da var man i Alice Springs for tva ganska slappa dagar, valbehovligt efter låååanga bussdagar pa vagen upp hit. Men det har ocksa varit mycket roligt att se. Har hunnit med bland annat att: bo under jorden i Coober Pedy, atit kanguru, emu och kamel, gatt de 9,4 kilometrerna runt Uluruklippan, sovit under stjarnorna i bushen, hinkat ol i Alice Springs, akt 170 mil buss pa tva dagar – och det var de langa dagarna, de andra dagarna har varit atminstone 4-5 timmar i bussen, gatt upp halv fem pa morgnarna, vandrat fyra timmar i Kings Canyon och fatt lara mig om mat, medicin och klister man kan hitta i naturen om man vet var man ska leta, gatt omkring med flugnat nar krypen blivit for irriterande (75000 flugor per person har nagon raknat ut att det finns), sett vilda kameler. Kort och gott har det varit grymt kul hittills. Imorgon ar det upplockning utanfor hostelet klockan 05.45 (gasp...) for vidare fard norrut, mot Darwin och nya aventyr!

Sitting in Alice Springs, having two relaxing days here. Welcome after some looong days in the bus. Long but with lots of exiting places visited. Among the things done are: living underground in Coober Pedy, eating kangaroo, emu and camel, walking the 9 kilometers around Uluru, sleeping under the stars in the bush, drinking jugs of beer in Alice Springs, traveled 1700 kilometers in two days, in addition to the shorter days with only 4/5 hours on the bus, waken up 4.30 am in the mornings, walked four hours in beautiful Kings Canyon, learned about bush tucker and medicine, worn fly net against the very annoying 75000 flies per person (how did they count?), & seen the wild camels. Do I need to say that I’m having a good time this far? Tomorrow morning it’s pickup at 5.45 am outside the hostel (yawn…), getting on the road again towards Darwin and new exciting adventures!
