As luck would have it we arrived back in Alice Springs (from Kintore) just in time for the opening of the Beanie Festival. And what an array! I have never in my life seen so many beanies! People from all over Australia contribute their creations which are for sale. It would seem too that people from all over Australia travel to Alice Springs specifically at this time to attend the Beanie Festival!
We had great fun viewing the thousands of beanies and felt hats on display and trying on a few (which was openly encouraged.) What joy! Here are some photos to help tell the story....
