Photo Adventures with Curiosity and Learning

We flew from Sydney to Alice Springs. Flat Jacob was using Google Earth to find the airport

Here is the Google Earth view of our flight

Departure from the Sydney Domestic Terminal

and arrival at Alice Springs (yellow track) and taking the shuttle bus to the Comfort Inn (green track)

Here is flat Jacob, waiting with Ellen for the airport shuttle to take us to our hotel

We went to our hotel - in the lower right. After checking in, Flat Jacob and I took a walk along the river bed to the center of the city. The green track is that of the Airport Shuttle. The blue track is my walking into town and the purple track shows that I took a short cut across the river bed when returning to the Comfort Inn

As I walked I passed signs of Aboriginal Programs

A license plate announcing that we're here - in outback country

A typical Alice Springs street

As seen from Google Earth

The local Saloon

and Woolworths - great food store

walking back I passed a parrott

a colorful bird

And two parrots
