I am really looking forward to our trip, especially some winter sun!! My husband did some research and found Afghan Traders online and rang and had a chat to them. I look forward to exploring and will post lots of pics for you :)Nikki Fisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07061038678819861999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6627109429370960702.post-19448394863094867632015-07-04T11:22:56.772+10:002015-07-04T11:22:56.772+10:00Nikki you will LOVE Alice Springs! My heart countr...Nikki you will LOVE Alice Springs! My heart country! Apart from all that majestic ancient country (make sure you head out west to the Western Macdonnells), the town has lots of vibrant spots off the tourist path too. Page 27 is an old local fav cafe - great coffee and vego foods. The Botanic Gdns has a nice but more mainstream cafe but great for the kids to run around and explore. Afghan Traders is the whole food store, see if you can get some local dates. Casa Nostra across the river on the eastside is an institution - classic Italian unchanged for 30 years, I love their very sweet vanilla slice for a treat. NPY Women's Council have beautiful tjanpi (spinifex baskets) and for exceptional art Papunya Tula is the leading gallery in town. Don Thomas stockman outfitters has also been around forever for the cowboys in the family, and the local markets are getting better and better all the time. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
