Leaving the desert behind off to the big city. Sydney. What a day up early for the sunrise too cloudy to see anything. Then off to walk th base of Uluru 12 kilometres, whilst we started early and it was cooler. Cooler is a relative word. Walk ended three half hours later in 34 degrees heat. It was hot. I reLly enjoyed listening to the cultural history of the place and the like. But not a interesting walk, and it was so hot the last 20 minutes I wasn't sure I could finish it. The guides knowledge about the area geology, the land and customs. Tales of lizards, people and folk law. Great.

This is equivalent to a school teaching the young about the foot prints of anamils, where water is and other useful things.
Back quick shower some food and off again to go to look at Kata Tjuta. A 2 kilometre walk into the gorge. By which time I'm well and truly knackered.
