A few more images from the Australian heartland...

Some random images from our travel to the region also known as the Red Centre . . .

Did I tell you that it gets cold at night?  ... at our first night dinner and stars presentation.
The offered fluffy ponchos made Bob and Cheryl look like Obi-Wan-Kenobi.

Sunrise steals across the land . . .

. . . and once again paints the canvas that is Uluru.

Uluru as we hike along its base.

The Kantju Gorge at Uluru. 
When it rains the falling water creates dark streaks of sediment in the side in the rock. 
There is another large waterhole at the bottom of this fall.

Some of the flora of the area... (We don't know all the names)

Honey Grevilleas

More of the bushland around Kata Tjuta.  The low grassy cover is Spinifex, very useful in the ecosystem of the land. 
The red gum trees provide many resources for the aboriginal people.  You can see the effects of a controlled burn.

More of Kata Tjuta.

Desert Oak (not like ours at home!) at sunset with Kata Tjuta in the background.

Sunset again comes to the land.

Tourists!  Enjoying drinks and nibbles while watching for the sunset colors to appear on Kata Tjuta.
