Alice Springs

The morning we woke up in Alice (Wed July 25th) we decided to drive to Anzac Hill to take a look at the city. Alice Springs is pretty small and from what we could see there is not much to see or do except go on a tour to Ayers Rock. So the first day with no plans or arrangements to get back to the East Coast we were really questioning why we were there and how we were going to get back. For you who really know me I’m not really the spontaneous type and like to have some kind of a plan. So we both felt it was odd that we hadn’t any plans past going to Alice Springs. Talking we decided we wanted to go back to Darwin for about a month then head back to Cairns to start heading down the East Coast. How we were going to do that at a cheap price we didn’t know. We dropped off the campervan and asked if they had any relocate vans needing to be driven back to Darwin. The lady who was helping us informed us they didn’t have any relocates and then stopped and looked at us and said “I don’t normally do this but I’m heading to Darwin next Friday driving there in one day for the Darwin Cup (major horse races) and you guys look okay would you like to catch a ride with me.” Well Casey and I said we would take her phone number and give her a call. Talking together after Casey shared with me that he knew she was going to ask us before she asked and I felt a confirmation in my heart from God also. So we chatted with her and now had our ride to Darwin. Thank you Lord! So we checked into our hostel (Annie’s Place) & booked our tour to Ayers Rock.
