We got all the way up to a town called Tom Price. Next stop should have been Broome then Fitzroy Crossing, or roughly like that.........until we got the news that the Fitzroy Crossing bridge was down and nowt was going East or West.
We decided at Tom price to turn around and come back south, lucky enough on a different road we went north on.
Anyway we are now in Alice Springs arriving from the South when we should have arrived from the North.
Here for 2 more days then onto Ullaru.
Done 8,000 ish Ks thus far and still got 3 weeks ish to go. It's been a blast.
3 days ago came out of a site onto the main road and the bitch said " go straight for 686 Ks then turn left"
And BTW a happy New Year to all.

A long term wish is a monumental achievement .... I'd be tempted to pick up a small rock to keep as a momento !
