Chillin on Cottesloe
A quick photo taken of the wonderful ocean off Cottesloe. I've arrived in Alice Springs "The Red Centre", after a 2 hour flight from Perth. Thanks to Nige and Nicole for putting me up whilst in Perth, and for the lift to the airport. Stopped off in Cottesloe before the airport and took a few photos with Nige.
The landscape from the plane was awesome, you can see why they call this part of OZ the "The Red Centre". The colour of the landscape is parched red by the sun. You will also notice from the photos, that not many rivers contain water!!! I've booked into my
accommodation for the night. It's a very clean and friendly place, even if a little more basic than the accommodation I have been used to recently!! Just about to head for a curry, which has been recommended by the owner of Alice's Secret. Looking forward to that, I hope they serve cobra. I've also managed to make myself a new best friend, a dog at the hostel which I have decided to call Rolf!!! I thought it was a good idea, as any self respecting swagman needs a dog for company when going "walkabout" around the outback. I'm going to head now and

What Rivers??
From your comment "You will also notice from the photos, that not many rivers contain water!!!" - what photos were you referring to? Certainly not the blogged ones!! Great to talk to you yesterday mate and had an excellent laugh at your expense watching you 'move' on the dance floor (which can only be losely described as dancing - more like a puppet with its strings cut!!). Boston looms ever nearer and I can almost taste those Fenway Franks!!
