Great Central Road Day 07

The cheerful Ayre's Rock (oops sorry Uluru whatever . . .) caravan park. I think you can see why you'd go stir crazy after a while.



















Alice Springs here we come . . .
This means a trip out to the Stuart Highway and then head north.
Along the way you pass Mt Ebenezer station / roadhouse.
The view on the way is always quite impressive
















and gets better as you get closer
















The station property itself (and road house could be nicer, but that's the same for most places)


















but if you like the view you can consider buying it, the current owners have seen enough apparently


















Let's have another look at that


















can't understand why anyone would want to leave, you can't beat the view.
And the wildlife is included too


















Of course you wouldn't be able to look at it all right now as you can't drive everywhere at the moment . . .
















So just a slow day driving north to Alice.
Stopped about 30km south in quite a nice parking spot and spent the night there to the accompaniment of continuous ongoing rain.














Wee'll see what tomorrow brings.
