Marla

There's a small town on the way to Alice called Marla. If you drove straight through you would think its just a roadhouses but as it was getting hot we decided to stay at the little caravan park at the back. It was like an oasis in the middle of nowhere. Green grass, shade and even a swimming pool. Nothing flash but cool and inviting. There we met Trevor and Carol who had come through Queensland and gave us lots of hints about good places to stay and different attractions to see. Marla is just south of the NT border and is a small town with just a few houses as well as a police station and post office.

One thing we noticed since leaving CP (and all the way to Alice), is the amount of burnt out car wrecks on the side of the road. It seemed that there were wrecks everyn10-20 Kms or so. Haven't come accross this before.
