No swim this morning as no pool. Off early (for us) at 8:30am to travel to
Kata Tjuta (formerly the Olgas).
Lots of wildflowers on the way. Upside down flowers and honey grevilleas.
Walked around the Valley of the Winds – first a
steep climb to a couple of lookouts and then a pretty walk back through a green
valley enclosed by the Kata Tjuta’s heads.
Plenty of birds – little zebra finches, buggies
and parrots.
Rodger found the rocks hard to break – and in
fact enjoyed his break at the end of the walk – the bench was just a work of
art!
On the way to register for camping we
encountered a herd of camels grazing beside the road – the first we have seen
up close.
Decided to watch the sunset at Uluru in style –
out with the chairs, ginger beer, chips and biscuits and cheese – that would
have cost us $200 if we had gone on the tour!
Beautiful sunset viewing of the rock.
Now back to the campsite for dinner – BBQ the
biggest pork chop we had ever seen – big enough for both of us to share and bought
on special at Coober Pedy.
