Day 5



After 3 days in the desert we have arrived at Uluru. We are all covered in red dirt and so is everything in the caravan!!  Spent 2 nights camping in the bush.  Millions of stars and lots of howling dingoes.  Have seen very little wildlife on the road so far.  Not one kangaroo, only a few camels and an eagle.  Got a puncture coming in to Warburton but luckily, easily fixed. Had our first water crossing which was a bit scary! Saw the Olgas on the way to Ayers Rock which were pretty impressive.  Nowhere to camp though so had to come in to Uluru and it was dark by the time we arrived so haven't seen much of the rock yet.  Weather has been lovely, been in shorts the last couple of days and going to head off to explore the rock tomorrow.  Really glad to be off the gravel road.  Has been very bumpy.  :))
