We waited downstairs at the hostel for our new guide to come get us for the next leg of the trip. Dave came in to get us and introduced himself as our guide! We also have Shane (because Dave is still in training) and on our trip we have a family of five from Sydney (Steve, Lucy, Will, Penny and Chris) and the three of us and that was it!
First stop of the day was – CAMEL RIDES! Oh I’m not joking….
We stopped at a truck stop for some gas as our next stop – and that’s where we saw our first mouse…. Oh yesss there is a mouse plague where we are camping… yay…
Went to camp (tonight’s camp was called Yulara) and had some delicious sandwiches for lunch. Next stop of the day was Kata Juta (Valley of the Winds) for our first big walk on this trip – took an hour and a half (It was fast paced – no time for stopping – uphill of course, boulders to climb over – for a view that was ok)
After Kata Juta we went to Uluru for sunset – where our wonderful guides provided champagne and crackers! We watched the sunset over Uluru – as the magnificent rock changed colours we managed to get some great pictures!
(some silly ones of course too!)
Headed back to camp for dinner which was camel sausages, kangaroo steak, beef steak, potatoes and veggies (yummmm)!
Set up swags for the first time so we could sleep under the stars
