Uluru

Our first night on camp at Ularu entertained us with shooting stars. The following morning was an early start for some of us who went to see the sun rise at Ularu. To be totally honest the view of the sunrise was far more entertaining that staring at the big rock during it. Later in the morning though we took a healthily paced walk around the big lump of earth and it's hard not to be impressed by it. Sunset was a more impressive affair perhaps assisted by some Australian bubbles at the viewpoint with Uluru as a grand backdrop. When we returned to camp for dinner we were entertained by Debbie who had written a verse or several to sum up the trip so far – it was very entertaining. It made us mindful that Agatha Christie would have had plenty of material for a murder on the London to Sydney trip.
