Friday 8th & Saturday 9th
June – Alice Springs.
Yesterday we did a bit of sight seeing. Had
lunch at Olive Pink Botanic Gardens as I was keen to see the Western Bower
Bird. However, it did not show. Went back later in the afternoon while Jo was
at the physio but missed it again. Jo’s arm is getting more mobile every day so
that is good. She bought new boots and was so thrilled that she was able to
lace them up all by herself!!
I went to the Reptile Park for an hour and
had a really enjoyable time. The guy was happy to let me photograph to my
heart’s content.
Today, I got up early. 8AM!!! And headed up
to the gardens again. Saw the bower bird but again it was elusive. We had spent
getting ready for the Tanami. Jo cleaning car and van and washing and ironing,
Jan and Pat preparing the shopping list then shopping, Allan fixing all the
problems. It took all day. The big problem when we got back was finding a place
to put all the purchases.
Tomorrow we head up the Tanami so will be out of contact for 6-7 days
