We flew to the small town Ayers Rock and joined a group of 22 guests on a three-day trip through the Red Centre. From the plane we could already watch the landscape incl. Uluru (formerly Ayers Rock).
On a cultural walk, Cecilia, a lovely aboriginal woman, explained many things about their culture, paintings and certain locations around Uluru in her native language – fortunately we also had a translator.
It was close to 40° C, fortunately it cooled down a little bit at sunset, supported by a glass of Champaign.
Almost as good as the sunset was the moon rise (we had full moon that night). The group helped to prepare the dinner (kangaroo) – delicious – and then went to sleep, as we had to get up VERY early next morning (03:50). Steffi and me decided to use the swags and to sleep under the stars. Check.
