Gold Coast to Alice Springs

Well 2000Km's of Outback dirt roads, soft sand and corrugations and 12 days without mobile reception & internet! A couple of days now at Alice Springs; time to get some admin done, post the blog & restock supplies & grog! Here's some images we've taken on the way so far. As always the Australian outback never fails to disappoint, we're having the best time :) If you never never go, you'll never never know!

If you want to follow our route our camp sites are posted nightly at http://share.findmespot.com/shared/faces/viewspots.jsp?glId=0mcupBCWEJ5T0kBI7fMYU0XJazUNchdtQ
