Last day in Alice Springs, first steps in Adelaide

My last entry was a poor translation, so I'll try to avoid this in the future...

Let's catch up! Our last day in Alice Springs was fun! After some sleeping, we went in the city to relax and shop around. During the afternoon, we attended a free Didgeridoo workshop! We did a lot of noise but definitely had a lot of fun! Then we went up on Anzac Hill, a 5-min hike to see the city from above.

The next day, we flew to Adelaide. It seems that we went on the first flight Alice Springs - Adelaide with Tiger Airways! Once in Adelaide, surprise, it's raining :-( We then spent the evening with our hosts.

This morning, we went to Cleland Wildlife Park to discover Australian animals and approach them. First time we saw koalas (and we cuddled one!), wombats, monitors (reptiles), big kangaroos and a lot of colorful birds! The afternoon was dedicated to the visit of the city center. We were lucky as the city is currently holding a festival, the Fringe 2009. We watched two shows tonight, a Canadian (from Montreal) puppet show as well as a circus. We laughed a lot and had a really good time!

Tomorrow, we're leaving for two days on Kangaroo Island :-) Hopefully we'll see a lot of animals too!
