After yesterdays big day, today was a bit more laid back. The Car relocation people finally answered my email requesting some negotiation on the days required to take a vehicle back to Melbourne. Unfortunately, they responded too late and the job has been taken by someone else this morning. I am now left with the slim option that something new will turn up tomorrow morning, but are not hopeful.
Realistically, I will be catching the bus at noon from Darwin, arriving in Alice Springs at 9.15am the following morning. The problem with this is that some of the areas we will be passing through, from Tennant Creek down, including the Devils marbles will all be passed through at night so I won't see much. But apart from hiring a car (all up about $400 a day in these parts) or hitchhiking, I have little other options.
So today was relaxing in the pool, having lunch with Gail and doing a bit more laundry before heading off again.
