DARWIN 2019 Day 06 - Sunday 20th October

ALICE SPRINGS

We stayed at the Desert Palms Resort where we have stayed several times previously.

A certain time was needed for reorganising from our bush travels to the trip north to Darwin.
There was time to visit Araluen Cultural Precinct to catch up on the last day of the Desert Mob exhibition.

A special interest at the Desert Mob exhibition was a pair of "ngintaka", not as good as the ngintaka that Amata gave us when we left but made by Sandy Dodd who we think might be a grand-daughter (or grand-daughter-in-law) of old Tommy Dodd who carved our treasure.

We wandered on around the precinct and into the museum .

In the museum there was a whole section on meteorite craters around Australia, including a model of Haasts Bluff that we had just visited on the previous day.
