So arriving at Alice Springs Airport in good time, we find that our flight has been cancelled!! We're to be put on a later flight direct to Cairns- as opposed to the trip to Yulara (in the opposite direction!) before heading up to Queensland!! Then we are told that flight has been merged with a further later flight, via Yulara!! Even the Thai's weren't this bad!! At the airport Tom managed to slip on some wet floor and give himself whiplash... the moron!!! Anywa...

After a 5hour journey to Yulara (the resort next to the national park in which Uluru and Kata Tjuta were) we found our camp. The journey had involved a stop at a Camel Farm where you could ride camels if you wished- having done so with Natalie in Tunisia last year, I couldn't be arsed and instead had a camel burger!!!!

Tom returned Shanessa to Alice Springs Airport while I washed our clothes and just generally sorted s...

After the vigorous immigration department- they had both our bags unpacked, and asked both me and Tom (separately) our plans for Oz- we eventually managed to get a car hired for the two days! We stepped outside to set off to be confronted with a crazy rainstorm- apparently Darwin has had record rainfall recently!! Anyway I...

Arrived in Singapore fairly late, with apparently no way to contact Lambert's mate (Chris), who also happened to be out on the lash at the time. Couldn't find internet to see if he'd Facebooked us his address, and my Thai phone sim card was now redundant in Singapore!!! We decided to get on a bus in the general direction of the city centre, but even this proved a challenge as the last direct bus had already gone. Some locals tried their best to explain what we...
