Distance Travelled: 265.8kms
Today we visited Lassiter's Cave, where I noticed that the right front shock was oily - bugger. We saw Kata Tjuta (Olga's) and Uluru today and arrived at Yulara and met up with Dad.
Forgot the Spots today - oops - we are looking forward to propping in one place for a couple of nights.

 |
| Interesting approach to bushfire prevention. |
 |
| My first venture in Northern Territory. |
 |
| Yep we are heading for Uluru. |
 |
| Some more peas - purple this time. |
 |
| Pink and purple really. |
 |
| Yep - beware of animals... |
 |
| and there is a camel - just to prove the point. |
 |
| Camel among the Desert Oaks |
 |
| It is unbelievable that the early explorers and settlers survived to tell any tales at all. The distances are amazing and the country harsh and unwelcoming. |
 |
| Sarah in Lassiter's Cave. |
 |
| Interesting tree bark |
 |
| Tjunti - Lasseter's Cave - Meg and Sarah. |

| Dunno what this is, but I picked it. |
 |
| The Olgas in the distance - bit exciting to see them at last. Now for the Rock - hope it is not disappointing. |
 |
| Pretty unreal how the trees etc grow up there. |
 |
