Sunday, September 22nd
The morning was spent shopping in Alice. We are now the proud owners of our first piece of Aboriginal Art, currently being shipped back to San Francisco. Then headed North up the Stuart Highway. The temperatures are soaring and the roads are long.
Wycliffe Well claims to be the "UFO capital of Australia". We stayed the night but unfortunately did not see any green men. The campground was wonderfully decorated in 70's style UFO paraphernalia.

Monday, September 23rd
Up early to see Devil's Marbles. At 8:30am it was already 31C. The Marbles were well worth the visit. The rest of the day was 800kms (500 miles) of wide open plains on a long straight road. Not much to entertain us on the drive to Katherine. The peak temperature for the day was 40C and the temperature did not start to drop until 5:30pm. The overnight low is expected to be 24C here in Katherine.
