Curtin Springs

Curtin Springs



We have finally reached the Northern Territory. 
On one side of this huge sign, you stand in the Northern Territory

And on the other side you're in South Australia

We Stand Divided. One foot in Either State.

None of us has seen anything beyond this point in our lives so it's rather exciting for every little detail along the way.  Curtin Springs is one of the last stop-overs for most travellers heading to the Rock. The distance is too far so everyone tends to stay here and leave in the morning for a fresh start.

Main Street Sign Post
There was a guy who had ridden the entire Stuart highway on this posty bike. What a nutter!

Town Amenities were what you can expect here at Curtin. Very Dusty too. They did have internet here but WOW... i think we paid $5 (per 10 minutes) into some sort of vending machine and the screen looked 100 years old. but the speed was dial-up and took me 15 minutes to even check emails etc. obviously for desperate people only.


  Thought I might walk the town with the girls to get a couple of photos in. feeling quite anxious about seeing Ularu and having the girls with us for this fantastic family adventure
Little Lily is always smiling 



And Mia is the chatterbox.
 So Its 'keep the van attached' and get a nights sleep here till the morning. Next stop. The ROCK!



We are definately not missing the work and running a business. As for real estate photos, i cant see anything worth taking in Curtin Springs.  haha
