19 hours on a train, the Legendary Ghan train at that (by legendary I mean old and very slow) is obviously a marvellous way to get to a place named Alice Springs which is infested with flies and if it wasn't for the absolutely crazy adventure of going into the outback with a bearded bush man and 17 other nutters to sleep in swags and hike round massive rocks at 430am-we might have contemplated not doing it.
As it turns out, it was amazing and a great way to say farewell to Oz which we will be departing for cooler climes v soon. The Olgas, The Rock, Kings Canyon were very impressive and the tour group was a lot of fun. Sleepig in swags, getting scared to death by Dingos in the middle of the night and partying hard 'Alice' style was a bit of an experience I can say. Am still feling the 22 hour day of 430am hiking to go clubbing and drinking , then to bed at 230 am the next day.
Interesting.
As you can imagine, the desert doesn't have the best tech for uploading photies, so you've got that to look forward to, you lucky people.
