We are just outside of the middle of nowhere, 1300km from the nearest large city. Alice Springs is 300km away, but it is just a small town in the desert. Over 400,000 people come here to see Ayers Rock and a formation of rocks called Kata Tjuta also known as the Olgas. We walked among the Olgas yesterday being constantly buzzed by large flies. Not really a lot of fun. These are sacred places to the Aborigines and they are supposed to hold many secrets. The big secret is how they get so many people to come here to see a few big rocks. We saw the sunrise this morning at Ayers Rock and will do a dinner under the stars tonight. Tomorrow on to Cairns and civilization. p.s. You can double click on the pictures to enlarge them.
