I got to the airport at 9:30am to catch my flight to Melbourne. I arrived at 15:20 and saw the three guys who had climbed at Uluru when I was waiting to collect my bag. One of them was getting the skybus too so I caught it with him and texted Jimmy who said that he'd meet me when I got there. He replied saying that he'd meet me at 5pm at Flinders Station. The guy I was with had to get to that station too so I went with him and as I had half an hour to kill he sai...

I waited outside the hostel at 5:30am for my bus to pick me up for my one day tour to Uluru. The coach had mostly old couples on it and there was about 20 people on the trip. But not having any young people to chat to meant that I could catch up on my sleep! I managed to catch up on quite a bit of sleep as the journey was about 5 hours long! We stopped off at Fool-Uru which is a mountain which from a distance looks like Uluru. We then stopped at Yuluru res...

We got up at 6:30am and had breakfast and then set off. We had a couple of hours travel time so o pass the time I snoozed and chatted to those who were sitting near me. We stopped at Devils Marbles mid morning, which was really good. The rocks are all balanced on top of each other and look really amazing. We had fun posing for photo's doing things like pretending to push them over and climbed up a few of them to get good views. We spent about an hour messing...

We went to Mataranka Thermal Pool and walked through a rainforest where there were sprinklers going off which made it feel like an authentic rainforest. We spent an hour there posing for photographs, giving each other piggy backs and having girly chats. The water was nice and warm. We then drove to Daly Waters which has some really old buildings dating back to World War 2 including a post office and a pub. The pub is open to the public and people who have visi...

We met outside the hostel at 5:30am and were joined by three new people who were girls from Germany (Lena), Canada (Amanda) and Denmark (Abbie). We drove to our camp first and had an early lunch and then went to Katherine Gorge. Most of the goup decided to canoe so I had a single canoe and some people had double canoes. It took us about an hour to get to the end of the gorge and we had fun splashing each other, trying to bump into each other and laughing at Le...
