Sunday 29th July 2018 - Having left Batchelor we drove onto Adelaide River where we stopped for a coffee and Bacon & Egg Toastie. This was an interesting little café that was also had an art gallery and small shop where the owner was selling their homemade jams and chutneys. We met a lovely couple here and in conversation we ended up spending the time swapping hints & tips for the places we had all been too or were travelling to. When we finally bid o...

Thursday 28th June 2018 - Headed off to the West MacDonnell Ranges for a few days, so we'll be off the grid. Our first stop was at Simpsons Gap that was a short walk to a beautiful waterhole.
