First Night at Annie's Place

 We finally land in Alice Springs and after spending a week in the bush, it was really nice to land in a place that had a proper shower. The group met up at a hostel named Annie's Place for some farewell drinks, and to celebrate the tour and our arrival. We played our favourite drinking games "Fuck ups" and "Flip cup". Needless to say, we got a little sloppy. One of the rules in flip cup is swapping clothes...

The hardest thing about travelling so far is saying good bye to everyone that you meet, sometimes you meet people that you just click with. You expose the best part of yourself, the real you when you travel. Leaving everyone open, and giving the best part of you. It's really amazing. A "see you later" and "safe travels" to our dear friends. 

Tomorrow we explore this place, Alice Springs. We made it!






Toms send off is an awesome Kangaroo casserole, that of course, Tom cooks up for us. It was amazing. We will definitely miss both him, and his nutritious meals.

Day 6 Desert Tour

On our last day of the tour, we caught a red Uluru. Thank goodness, this is what I've been waiting to see. It was a gorgeous sunrise, one that we got to spend with our new mates. The relationships we made on this trip will remain unforgettable.

We make a stop so some of the people on the bus can take a camel ride, I don't do it, to me it doesn't make much sense. Although some people like the experience. I spent most of my time with a little girl named Azari, a sick little Dingo that is too adorable and too sweet. I wanted to steal her, and bring her to Alice Springs, but the tour guide wouldn't let me. : ( 












Now a stop to dig for witchetty grubs. And to eat them.

This is a pretty small grub, but Clement and Matthew are gonna share it anyway.





"Not too bad"




"Where the heck did Tom go?"




Bonne Appetite!


Lets go have our first party in Alice, shall we?
