After a full day of trotting around Melbourne with my Alaska friends, I headed off to the Spencer Street Train station for my overnight trip to Adelaide, connecting on to Alice Springs aboard the Ghan. Though I enjoy writing train reports as much as plane reports, having now travelled aboard these trains in Economy or Red Kangaroo Class as it is called, I can assure you that there was really nothing worthy of writing home about. First Class on the other hand looked to be quite nice but was priced way too far out of my range.

So, I am focusing this trip on the small country towns of Central and Western Australia, staying in the cheapest accommodations possible. And now, they say I've got to end. So, til next time...
