Message from Adelaide

After being in Australia for a year, i've got the chance to see the finest part of the country funally. I made a 6-day trip from Alice Springs to Adelaide to see the outback of the central area. The trip was finished yesterday and it seems to me that 6 days are not enough to explore 10% of the advanturous of central Oz. Challenging climbs, rock pool swimming, spotting kangroos and other wildlife, sleeping under the star...every moment is so impressive and time flew much faster than usual. I am sure the spectaclar views of the red centre will remain in my memory ofr a long time.
Trip is not end yet. I am going to explore the southern part of Australia in about 10 days. Kangroo Island and Great Ocean Road are the highlight of the coming trip. Will be back to Sydney around 5/2.

P.S I'd like to stay always from mobile phone or Internet during the tour. But i got some free coupons which gave me incentive/temptation to involve in the Net again.

The public transport network is not good in Sydney. It is quite common that you have to spend 1 1/2 hours on train or bus for a 15-20 minutes drive route. And the fare is very expensive as well.
Meanwhile, they spend millions dollar to build new road, highway and tunnel which make everyone feel that driving your own car is better than using public transport.
It is a very bad approach from an the environmental prespective.
