Hi don, I should explain the pictures, did I already? I dunno but That is the Todd River in Alice Springs. Normally it might flood Approx. once in 27 years. These photos are from late feb Anyway After 3 unprecedented floodings in a year (2010) she might be up and running. Most of Australias "ethereal rivers" are flowing. I might add this process began last year. Last years rain was crucial in providing the spark. Bit like pouring petrol down the sparkplug hole to crank a big old engine!
Talk soon
