Actually, there's a couple of reasonable sized towns and quite a few roadhouses and petrol stations between us and Alice Springs. If you get up early enough in the morning you can do the trip in a day. I should do a post on what the trip's like.
Yeah, it's a really colourful set! Perth Mint coins are always really cool.
Yeah I know the NT has lot of places in between. I was trying to make a joke by understating the distance and saying its not far its just the next town over.
Me too. 3 towns in 1,500 kms is not many.
