Alice Springs

The day started cloudy and cold with a little drizzle. At 20 degrees, it was 12 degrees colder than Darwin.
After having granola and fruit for breakfast in the cafe at the motel, I walked to the Tourist Information Centre along a pedestrian mall to book a tour to the East MacDonnell Range. The Centre also directed me to an office supplies warehouse where I bought folders for my documents once they dried out. I also bought stamps at the Post Office; 3A$ for a postcard.
I walked out of town to the Araluen Cultural Precinct. Unfortunately, the Museum of Central Australia was closed. I walked around the four galleries of the Arts Centre which had mainly modern art focusing on the Central Desert Region.
The Theatre was advertising an upcoming performance of La Boheme by Opera Australia.
At the cafe, I bought a coffee to go with the toast I'd saved from breakfast.
I walked back into town, took a photo of the statue of the explorer, John McDouall Stuart, and went to the Reptile Centre.Read more
