Alice Springs

The Ghan makes a 3,000km journey from Darwin to Adelaide, with the mighty wheels kicking up the red dirt of the Australian Outback as it travels straight down the middle of the country.  

It's a once in a lifetime journey, but it pays to be prepared. My tip for any visit to the Outback is to invest in a fly net for your head and shoes you don't mind coming home covered in red dust! #LifeatExpedia

Make sure you get the #windowseat if you ever fly out from Alice Spring Airport #uluru #ayerrock #viewfromabove #LifeAtExpedia
The landscape is pretty bare in the Australian outback.  However, what there is to see has great beauty!
Most places have a healthy pigeon population.  The pigeons in Alice Springs come with a very cool hairdo:)  This crested pigeon was happy to pose for me!

I asked for ground floor, near pool if possible and quiet. I was allocated room 207. The night was very quiet. The room was spotlessly clean and the bed was extremely comfortable and enjoyed a great nights sleep. Dinner was quick as a flash. The only negative was my not so cold JD RTD for $13.70. ...
