It talked about joining Australia with the UK and how they went about building the line.
There was also some history about how back then, there were a number of mixed race children and they rounded them all up, taking them away from their mothers and teaching them the way of the white people. They thought it was the best thing for them.

Wanda Johns Gives me the shivers!! Wanda Johns Always the same. Auf dem vierten Bild kann die Strecke des Telegrafen entnommen werden. Hier entstand die erste Siedlung von Alice Springs mit der Telegraphenstation. The countryside became greener with areas of scrubland as well as red sand dunes.
On the way we saw a dingo, a few camels and some wedge-tailed eagles. After setting up at the Kings Canyon Resort camp ground which was very dry and dusty we walked to a sunset viewing platform nearby to watch the changing colours on the rocky George Gill Range.
Next morning we headed off about 9am for the short drive to the canyon car park where we began our 6km Rim Walk. After a steep climb up many stone steps we reached an area metres above the carpark where we had great views of the rugged range and the plains beyond, before continuing on the circuit over rocky and uneven surfaces which required us to constantly watch our step but the views were worth it.
At one lookout point was a deep gorge with sheer flat sandstone cliffs on either side.
At another section we descended a staircase to a bridge over a ravine with a waterhole and lots of green vegetation beneath us. After a tiring day we enjoyed a meal at the Outback BBQ within the resort.
The next day we drove to nearby Kathleen Springs Gorge and headed off on an easy 2. Because of rain some weeks before our visit, there are a lot of wildflowers, mainly mauve coloured, hairy flowers on low growing shrubs and seed heads on some grasses.
At the head of the gorge was a lovely tranquil area of shaded green vegetation and a waterhole fed by a permanent spring with the red cliffs rising on either side. It was punishing on both the car and caravan, not to mention US!! The MacDonnell Ranges became visible in the distance and soon we were driving between two arms of the range.
Finally, after about four grueling hours we came to the sealed road again and after a short stop at Tylers Pass lookout where we had views of Gosse Bluff and other parts of the West MacDonnell Ranges we drove on. We found the access road to a free-camp at Finke River 2 Mile opposite the closed Glen Helen Resort which had been recommended by fellow travellers. Unfortunately, in maneuvering the car and van in a tight turn, we got bogged up to the axles in the soft river sand but fortunately there were other helpful campers who came to lend a hand and we were successfully pulled out.
We set up on the harder surface of river pebbles with a view across the Finke River where some brave souls were swimming. On inspecting the van for damage from the extreme vibrations on the dirt road, I found that I had forgotten to put rubber bands on every container in the fridge and many jars had lost their lids including a jar of minced garlic which had emptied its contents all over the fridge and the stench was something to behold!!!
To cap it off the fridge would not run on gas and running it on our batteries meant that our battery power expired about midnight so we had no power for even running the water pump. Fortunately, next day Frank discovered a couple of wires had become disconnected at the back of the fridge and fixed it and the sun allowed our solar panels to recharge the batteries.
Over the next three days we made our way along Larapinta Drive, stopping overnight at campsites within the national parks. All the gorges were stunningly beautiful and different, some requiring more steep climbing of rock steps or rock-hopping over river boulders but it was all worth the effort to see such amazing places.
Nearly all the gorges had a waterhole and some had big river-sand beaches with majestic river red gums growing. The soaring red and rugged cliffs rising 50 to 80 metres on either side made them cool and shady places. In some gorges there were flocks of bright green budgerigars which would fly through the chasm, land briefly to drink and then take off in a flurry of wings and fly straight towards us, rising at the last moment to avoid us.
We drove on to Alice Springs where we had booked a site for a week at a caravan park, passing more of the rugged MacDonnell Ranges as we proceeded.
Loving your commentary. Magnificent country. Happy memories for me. Alle Kinder in Australien, die weiter als 50km von der Schule wohnen, werden zuhause unterrichtet. Wir konnten live am Unterricht teilnehmen. Before then, back in Alexander Graham Bell was controversially credited with inventing the first practical telephone and indeed, he made the first call.
Further back, when Samuel Morse invented Morse Code in , he created a revolution in communication and the electric telegraph was born. So why is this important? Well before we get to that, as I type on my mobile keyboard, tap, tap, tap, I realise that modern communication has largely gone from Morse Code, tap, tap, tap to, amazing, we can actually speak to someone on the other end of a line, then we went back to tap, tap, tap and our use of txting.
Have we really made any progress since the telegraph. After all, I could equally order a pizza with a telegraph as i could with a txt It was the global internet of the early 19th century. So this info is important because we are in Alice Springs and at the Alice Springs Telegraph Station, historically the most central communication hub between Adelaide and Darwin and indeed the whole of Australia. The station here is one of four remaining Telegraph Stations, another of which we had visited in Barrow Creek on the way to Alice.
Alice Springs connected Adelaide to Darwin and the rest of the world. In John McDouall Stuart successfully crossed the continent and pathed the way for a telegraph line. Charles Todd, South Australian superintendent of telegraphs masterminded the work to be done in three sections, North, South and Central. Given such remote and harsh country to navigate, the OT line was miraculously completed for the start of , pioneering the way to a. The first telegraph from Alice Springs to Adelaide was sent on 3rd January It carried the somber news that CW Craegan had died from thirst km down the line in the December heat.
He had been travelling to Alice Springs to take up the position of Stationmaster.
