Casey and I hung around Alice a few more days before we were catching a ride with Gayle to Darwin. We hung out a bit with some of the people we had met on the tour. Casey went golfing one day with our guide Peter and Liz (from UK). We enjoyed some amazing coffee at the Red Dog cafe which we seemed to be regulars at. We also had the best pizza at a little pizza shop more than once for dinner. Our last day in Alice we went to a Kangaroo rescue centre where they had little joeys. When you drive through the outback you can see so many dead kangaroos on the side of the road. We learned at the rescue centre that the kangaroos come to the sides of the roads at night for the green grass and most of the times are killed by passing vehicles. The vehicles hit the kangaroo’s upper bodies while their lower bodies are not injured at all and that’s where the joeys are, in their mom’s pouch. The joeys stay in their mom’s pouch for security or because they are too young to get out so this rescue centre was set up to help rescue these little joeys. It was an amazing experience holding these cute little guys. Casey & I got
