Alice Springs

Wow! The earth is red! 

Oliver has an aunt and uncle that live in Alice Springs. He is 11 yers younger than Oliver s mum so at 34 is more og a big brother to Oliver than an uncle.  He is also a tour guide for the rock. Uluru :) or Ayers Rock as most western people know it as.

We got a discount on the tour which was very nice of him. Sadly Richard is not our tour guide for the day as they didnt rota him on. 

The tour is all day from 6am til 11pm. Its 5 hours drive fro  alice springs to Uluru.  

The tour starts with a walk around Cataduta. I don't know why this is not as famous as its beautiful.  I liked it better than Uluru. 

We also did a guided walk around the base of Uluru.  Lots of people have died climbing the rock. It also upsets the aboriginals.  Uts sacred to them.

The tour finished with champagne n a bbq dinner watching the sunset over Uluru.  It does change colour. Breathtaking.
