To The Gulf Country 2018

The Field of Light was one of our trip highlights.    Canapes and bubbly on a dune watching the sunset on Uluru and, as darkness fell, 50,000 lights lit up the valley below us.   There was a controlled burn several ks away that provided further entertainment. Cheers  

The first day we camped at Yulara 'Resort' we joined hundreds of other people driving out to near the Rock to view an Uluru sunset.  Sometimes Uluru changes colour quite dramatically as the sun sets.  It didn't do a lot of colour changing for us but we took heaps of pics anyway. Next day Willie and I rode around the rock.  It was a great way to see it and less strenuous and more respectful than climbing

We left Alice and had a couple of free camps on the way to see the Big Rock. Camped at Hugh River Sunset at Rainbow Valley The Lonely Dunny We met up with our good friends Graham and Caralyn (ex Croydon neighbours) from Brisbane on the way. We sat around the bucket fire, watched the footy and generally behaved ourselves. Fivsies With Graham and Caralyn Saying Goodbye

Alice has heaps of things to see and do.  The Desert Song Festival was underway this time we stayed at Alice so we went to the Desert Song Concert at Honeymoon Gap.  There were several international artists playing ethnic music and also the Central Australian Aboriginal Womens Choir who have just returned from performances in the USA.
