THE END

As I was leaving Australia I decided that I should see Uluru (p.c. name for Ayer's rock). It's this huge monolith out in the middle of the country surrounded by hundreds of kilometers of nothing. I hoped a flight from Sydney and spent a couple days hiking around Kata Tjuta (The Olgas- a similar formation nearby) and Uluru. I also was able to catch one of the famous sunsets. Uluru is definately reddish, but as the sun reaches the horizen it suddenly glows. It is quite a sight! And an amazing ending to a wonderful trip to Australia!
