Day 5 and 6

Sorry for the late blogs all! We have been out of range for a little while now so lots to catch you all up on! 

Day 5

Day five was our first of two travelling days. We took a short walk in the morning at the Katherine Gorge and then set off for Renner Springs. Along the way we stopped at the thermal hot springs and also the iconic Daily Waters pub. That night we settled for a night under the stars at Renner. 

Day 6 

Today was our biggest travelling day yet. We made it to the Alice by 4.30 pm with a couple of short stops along the way. 

We visited the devil’s rocks or Kalur Kalur as it is known by our traditional land owners. 

Many bus games were played and we all got a taste of just how flat and dry the land out here is. 

When we got to the Alice we stocked up on goodies at the local supermarket before settling in to our accomodation for the night. Fair to say this is the most luxurious camp ground yet (the girls were super excited about the bathrooms!)

We got to enjoy a very funny and slightly terrifying reptile show tonight with lots of slimy friends to hold and see. A real highlight for some. 

It’s amazing how tired we all are after travelling 

Short blogs tonight but we are back in range so keep your eye out for more student blogs tomorrow. Snake and reptile photos to come later but for now here are some beauties from the last two days. 

Goodnight all!

One thought on “Day 5 and 6

  1. Great to hear that you have all managed the long haul travelling by bus to Alice Springs. Passing the travel time is an experience and memory in itself. Everyone looks well and in good spirits in the photos at Renner Springs. You are very near the centre and spiritual heart of the country now. A very special part of the journey now. Enjoy and stay well everyone!
