The day started with a dingo wandering through the caravan
park and later some bright green parrots eating a wild melon that can be seen
growing everywhere up here. We walked the Kings Canyon rim walk today, a very
steep climb at the beginning so we took several rest and photo stops. Once we reached the top the views were
impressive and the kind of scenery we think of as very Australian. Although the
walk was up and down over rocks it was not too strenuous or scary if you didn’t
get too close to the edge. We chatted to other people doing the walk which all
adds to the enjoyment of the experience.
We had dinner at the Resort Barbecue with our neighbours in the next van
– two couples who are related and sharing a van they had specially designed.
They had two vehicles so don’t have to unhitch the van as they visit
sightseeing places in the other car. We had a very enjoyable evening, not only
the good company, but also the entertainment provided by a couple whose stage
name is The Roadies. They got everyone involved and were very funny. Loved
their dancing toy rabbits.
