got up, went to see the sunrise. it is just the same as the sunset in reverse. yeah i know stupid thing to say it is obviously going to be. so nothing really that special as i just say it last night. While we were watching that nick is making breakfast, which is toast or ceral. i had both. piggy me.
then it is a short ride only about 2hrs to Kata Tjuta, went to the Aboriginal Cultural Centre where we learnt more about the Aboriginal's and again the things they do on the sacred grounds of Kata Tjuta.
had a 2.5 hr walk round Kata Tjuta, was pretty nice, a think better then ayers rock. was some lovely views again they are all rocks. nick had a few talks, one about how Kata Tjuta was made, by earthquakes and stuff, then spoke about how the Aboriginies believe is was made, again it is madness, and to be honest i can't remember exactly how the aboriginies think it was made, something about a god sitting on ayers rock and throw some rocks, to form Kata Tjuta. as Kata Tjuta is about 5 large rocks in a dome shape. the all make up things to the aboriginies and are all spritual.
so this time we went again watched the sunset over Kata Tjuta , was nice. see some good views.
then went to another camping site, just out side of Kata Tjuta. this time it was better, we had a proper camp fire. man make fire. lol. nice. stars again amazing. had a nice little chat with everyone. had some dinner, this time nick cooked chili con carnie. really nice but i guess, most things are after a hard days walking in the hot hot sun.
again i was the last one up, but that is most like a good thing, a couple of people. well emily complained about my snoring. well i am in a sleeping bag, so i am lying on my back, and i had a few beers. not a good combo. actually it is quite funny, she thoght it was her husband adam, and he had just got to sleep when she kicked him and woke him up. lol i should laugh really but nevermind.
so this time she tells me she is gonna sleep near me so she can kick me and wake me up if i wake her with my snoring. she is a light sleeper. no one else has complained. (yes i know thats a miriacle michael !!!!)
actually i slept away from everyone over the other side of a car park. was nice. again up tomorrow. can't wait i love these early mornings !!!!!!!!

hi bro
just caught up with your blogs im so glad your in oz now cause i have been and i know how much fun it was, when i was there they told us about ayres rock being sacred but most of my group climbed it, the view was wicked you could see Kata Tjuta from there and like you said its a 2hour drive to that so you can imagine how far you can see thats how flat it is over there.
when i was there they called kata tjuta the olgas as the mountain is called mt olga.
when i was at ayres rock i took some of the sand home with me as i hadnt seen sand that red before so i brought some home and some sand from bondi beach cause it was quite white.
i went to kings canyon as well and i prefered that to ayres will be interesting to see if you thought the same.
glad to see your having fun i haved looked at some of the photos that you sent dad they look wicked
love ya loads see ya soon
xx
