On the way home.........

........we paid a visit to this little roadside store. We were told that the Mango champagne is delicious. Thinking that Christmas is only 6 months away we bought some (along with a few others or 6) and it is now safely stored away til then. No, this very happy chappie did NOT need the sack truck to transport it to our car lol.

 


This marker shows the spot where the Tropic of Capricorn passes through this area, 40 kms north of Alice Springs. A popular rest spot for travellers, there is a caravan park complete with the old style long-drop "rest rooms". lol

 


last but not least, here is a couple of the notice boards at this site. I hope that they are clear enough to read.

Hello Olive
Once again I'm reliving our trip - will have to get my proper as in predigital photos out and look them over again. I'm sure I have one of the Tropic of Capricorn momument.
Oh, the rain has sort of stopped, but I don't think it will be for long tho'. Like you I said 'no more complaining about rain' when we hadn't had any for so long but somehow I forgot that hence my moans and groans lol
Take care
Cathy
