Day 18 - Alice Springs Unfortunately I accidentally deleted today’s post so I’m having to try to remember. We left the caravan park around 9:30am for a day trip to the West MacDonnell Ranges. Our first stop was Simpson’s Gap and what a beautiful place. We walked down to the water via the dry creek bed. It would look so different filled with water. The kids had fun climbing the trees. Next stop was Ellery Creek Big Hole. Again another beautiful spot an...
