Alice Springs
On our last day in Alice Springs I went for a final look round the town.
It was then time to head off to the airport.

Anzac Hill
Finally we had a short tour around the town of Alice Springs and a visit to Anzac Hill which gives panoramic views of Alice Springs and the MacDonnell Ranges.
I was then dropped back off at the hotel where I met back up with my sister and the kids.

Standley Chasm
Outside the entrance to the Desert Park I was picked up once again by an Alice Wanderer minibus. We started by heading to Flynn's Grave. Reverend John Flynn was the founder of the Flying Doctor Service and the Australian Inland Mission.
Our next stop was the setting for the most well known painting by Aboriginal artist Albert Namatjira.
Then it was off to Standley Chasm.

Desert Park
On Tuesday 8 April we were picked up outside our hotel by an Alice Wanderer minibus and taken to the Alice Springs Desert Park.
Once inside you can get an audio guide each. This is a very good way of finding out information about the park while still going at your own pace. The kids enjoyed using it too.
The following 7 pictures were taken in the Nocturnal House.
We then headed to the Coolamon Cafe for a snack and then went to see the presentation at the Nature Theatre.
By the end my sister was suffering from the heat and her and the kids caught a bus back to the hotel. I went into the movie theatre for the short film.
Afterwards I headed out to the entrance where I was to be picked up for the next part of the day.
