Alice to Adelaide Last Day

The next morning Max told us we were going to climb a mountain called the Dutchmans Stern (called this as it looked like the stern of Dutch ships back in colonial times), we all laughed at him until he pulled up at the car park and pointed to the top. It was over 800m high and the walk would be 3km long to get to the top.



It took us about 2 hours to get to the top and it was pretty tough going but the views were amazing. We could see all the way to Port Augusta and into the desert.




After this we returned to The Mill for lunch and then got ready to leave for Adelaide. On the way to Adelaide were going through the wine regions and so we just had to stop and do some wine tasting. We ended up buying a bottle of Reisling wine from the local vineyard. This was to be our last stop on the trip.



On the way to Adelaide to pass the time we had a quiz where made up questions for the other team mainly on things we had learned on the trip. We split the bus front and back and came up with some questions which included things like, how high is Uluru, what was the aboriginal word for waterhole, when was Max’s birthday etc. You will be pleased to know that team Gallard and Marcel won!



So once we arrived in Adelaide our trip was over, we said goodbye to the many friends we had made and arranged to meet up with some of the people who were going to be in Sydney.
