Alice Springs to Adelaide

Feb 25th. We check out and head to the airport for our midday flight down to Adelaide on the South coast. On arrival in Adelaide we find out that it is the cities busiest period in the year with a motor race and a film festival so accomodation is thin on the ground - also our not having booked tours may cause a problem. Doesn't sound good but a lovely lady called Belinda at the tourist information place at the airport sorts us out so we are booked to go to Kangaroo Island tomorrow for 2 days and then we are going on the 'Wayward Bus' (Tour company) for 3 1/2 days to Melbourne afterwards. Our accomodation is called 'The Blue Galah' - Those of you who used to watch Home & Away will remember Alf Roberts saying 'Flaming Galah'.

For those of you interested - A Galah is a bird.
