Walking

Our walking tour didn't get off the ground,  not enough takers but we are assured it will happen on Sunday. After quick reassessment we walk out to the

Alice Springs School of the Air, a school for remote students and some of them are really out there. I've always been aware of the school, and understood how it operates, but it was fascinating to see where it originates.  We had a tour and chat all our own.  Just sorry we weren't there on a school day. This was a fair bit further than we thought it would be so cab to ..
Araluen cultural precinct which houses the Art gallery,  performance centre and a couple of museums.  Disappointingly no cafe. I could not credit it  and feel it a cruel twist of fate that it opens in four days.  Fortunately the gallery was good, the aviation museum and the Museum of Central Australia well worth a look.
We made our way through town past closed cafes, beyond hunger,  staggering into our room for a rest before quick burrito meal in the main street. Can't hang around, there is footy on the telly after all.
