The Devil's Marbles

After a fabulous surprise of great meals and happy hour and powered site at the Devil's Marbles Hotel, we headed on to the Devil's Marbles themselves. Spectacular.  Lovely walk amongst the rocks.

McDonald Ranges ... Simpson's Gap


A gentle walk just to explore Simpson's Gap, located close to Alice Springs.  What a beautiful oasis!

All on my own!


Water to be found, too!



Just a short walk from the main carpark.

Sticky and I feeling a bit proud of ourselves
The colours are simply indescribable

Kings Canyon Day 1 22 May 2021

Love the flowering bushes

And the gums 
The varying colours of the sandstone

Walking into the Canyon itself...
And tomorrow we are going to walk - UP THERE
The diversity of this place is extraordinary... the colours defy the eye. Walking into the Canyon is easy and gentle... unlike our planned walk tomorrow 🤔

20 May 2021 Uluru

Secret Womens Business

Amazing cave art

Uluru suddenly appears almost out of nowhere

Love the red, red sand, and the vegetation.

We did it! ... great bike ride around the big red rock

Feeling pretty tuckered out, but very happy.

Flight to Painted Hills & Lake Eyre

I got to be co-pilot on our flight to the Painted Hills and over Lake Eyre

Helping the pilot get the plane ready

Flying over the salt - it can be 2 metres thick in places

Coming up to Lake Eyre...

Hardy survivors in the Painted Hills

Landed at the Painted Hills ... checking out the amazingness of it all.

Oh MY




I helped fly the plane... NOT

Our little Cessna Caravan

Curtin Springs Station Camp Spot

While exploring Uluru and surrounds, we stayed at the free campground at Curtin Springs. Had a great set-up happening!
