Uluru
Saw the big rock about 150km out of Uluru on the horizon. Lol! What a mistake! The Rock we saw was actually Mt Connor..Ha! No one tells you anything about that rock. The amount of people that stopped to take a photo believing it was Uluru. .....lol!
21st
Early morning start to try and get a good view of Uluru and the sunrise. Now at 5.30pm, we are on our way back to the van and D is fast asleep. Lots of walking and fresh air had really wiped him out. We're all quiet too, ready for an early night ;-)
Uluru, seeing the whole of the rock against the flat bushy landscape, is magnificent. Close up, not so magnificent. Didn't walk it as it was closed. Not sure I would have if it wasn't closed but I didn't have to make that decision. Kids were disappointed they couldn't climb it, but after some discussion I discovered they were expecting a full on rock climbing session. ...lol!
Walked amongst the Olgas (or as E says ogres) instead ;-) ps. Los of flies. Bought fly nets, made such a difference in comfort ;-)
